Phosmet for the systemic control of pig mange in growing pigs

G R Hewett. Vet Parasitol. 1985 Oct.

Abstract

A study of the effect of Sarcoptes scabiei var. suis on the performance of growing pigs under commercial conditions is described. Mange was endemic on the farm. Phosmet treatment controlled mange in growing pigs and resulted in a 12% increase in average daily liveweight gain over untreated mange-infected controls.
