On the dose

Harkers give us the concentration and the bird count per bottle but not a per-bird volume, so measure and apply strictly to the instructions on the bottle rather than by eye, and speak to an avian vet if you're treating a sick or very young bird.

Why we chose it

One product covering worms, lice and mites at once saves a keeper juggling three separate treatments on a busy loft, which is the practical case for stocking it. It's also from Harkers, a name pigeon keepers already trust for other health lines we stock.

— Matt, founder

Specifications

Brand: Harkers

Full description

A mite or lice problem in an aviary rarely announces itself until several birds are already affected, because the pests move bird to bird faster than a keeper notices the first one scratching.

Harka-Mectin is a spot-on treatment from Harkers for worms, lice and mites in racing pigeons and cage or aviary birds, containing Ivermectin at 0.35% w/v. The 5ml bottle is sized to treat 50 birds.

On the dose. Harkers give us the concentration and the bird count per bottle but not a per-bird volume, so measure and apply strictly to the instructions on the bottle rather than by eye, and speak to an avian vet if you're treating a sick or very young bird.

Who it's for: pigeon and aviary bird keepers dealing with worms, lice or mites across a flock, wanting one spot-on that covers all three.
