Hi everyone, thanks to advice,on here, my rescue Russian Hybrid from PAH is settling very well. However, I noticed him itching not long after I got him, so phoned the vet. He said it was mites and to buy some Xeno 50 mini. I applied the first dose two weeks ago, and it is time to repeat the process. However, two things worry me. I weighed him as instructed and applied 3 drops....I was too worried to apply 6 drops in case that would overdose him. It seems a big jump to go from 3 to 6 drops. He weighs 60g. What is the best way to ensure he gets the best dose for him? Also after treating him, do I need to scrub out his cage? I am obviously not keen to disturb him as he is still settling in. All advice appreciated.
