If you are using closamectin pour on remember that the withdrawal period is now just short of a million years.

I like an easy life so prefer a pour-on, haven't dosed the cows which are still out but don't think it's an issue just now. Haven't tested them though.

Going back to trodax this year, right or wrong, won't be doing them for 6 weeks yet.

Depends how heavy the current challenge is I guess. Trodax is very good with no reported resistance (iirc). As you say you need to wait a bit as it only does adult fluke.

Local guy I buy it off said to wait until they were in ten weeks, looking healthy so not overly worried about them for now.

Normally 1 jab of bimectin plus here. Biggest challenge is when to do it. Some cows been in a month, some just yesterday and some stay out till February.

I do everything with ivomec super. You need to do them either 12 weeks after housing or once some time after they have come in and again 12 weeks after they were housed. Do not use Closamectin pour on its shyte

You still need to wait a few weeks if you use Trodax to catch all of the fluke
