Avitrol Plus is a convenient and broad spectrum bird wormer which controls thread, caecal, round, gape, gizzard and important tape worms in caged birds.

Avitrol Plus is available in both syrup and tablet forn. Avitrol Plus syrup can be added to your bird's drinking water or dosed directly to the bird's beak or crop.

Avitrol Plus tablets provide a secure method of dosing individual birds in particular pigeons.

Syrup: Levamisole hydrochloride 10mg/mL, Praziquantel 2mg/ml.

Tablets: Levamisole hydrochloride 20mg, Praziquantel 4mg.

Syrup: Diluted in drinking water. 0.5ml (12 drops) to 20ml of water or 25ml/L. Use this as the sole source of drinking water for 24 hours, and feed only seed, then replace with fresh clean water. Administer two doses 14 days apart. Solution should be freshly made up before dosing. Repeat in 14 days with fresh solution. This provides a dose of 40mg/Kg bodyweight based on an average bodyweight of 30g and consumption of 5mL of liquid per day. In summer the dose should be reduced to account for increased water consumption, which may be double or more.

1 tablet for birds 500 to 750g,
