Why use MITEARREST®?
Stop wasting valuable technician time treating each rodent with risky dips, spot treatments, and injections. MITEARREST® consists of individual cotton balls impregnated with permethrin that are placed directly into the rodent's cage. Animals readily accept MITEARREST® and quickly turn it into nests. Through constant contact with the treated cotton, not only are existing fur mites killed, it also eliminates new mites as they hatch.
How much MITEARREST® do I need?
Directions for using MITEARREST®
- Place two to three MITEARREST® cotton balls, per rodent directly into the animal's cage.
- Change and/or replace MITEARREST® once a week, typically at the time of bedding material change.
- Continue this course of treatment for six weeks.
Technical Data
MITEARREST® is shipped in boxes containing enough bedding to treat approximately 300 mice for the entire treatment cycle. MITEARREST® delivers only 1800mg of Permethrin per kg bodyweight, an amount that has been shown to be non-toxic to rodents.
Enhanced by the use of a proprietary manufacturing technology which binds most of the permethrin to the nesting material, MITEARREST® reduces the risk of permethrin absorption by lab technicians.
