Titolo: per VET - Tritech

Ciao,
ho letto qualcosa qui sul Tritech tempo fa. 
Era uno spry per cavalli contro le zanzare. 
Vorrei sapere:
- posso usarlo sui miei cani contro i pappataci (accidenti alla leishmania)
- dove cavolo si vende? (in farmacia non lo conoscono, o forse non ho il
nome esatto?)
In alternativa va bene anche l'autan?
Mi piacerebbe molto avere questa info su come proteggere i cani dai
pappataci perche' devo andare 2 giorni all'Aquila e li' pare che la leishm.
sia diffusa.
A proposito, siete mai stati all'Aquila? io ho i nonni li', ci vado 2 volte
all'anno... beh, non ho mai visto tanti randagi sofferenti e malati come
nel centro dell'Aquila. Se c'e' qualcuno di AQ mi piacerebbe scambiare
qualche info e sapere se c'e' uno straccio di canile e se talvolta hanno
voglia di lavorare.
ciao, grazie
massimo MDM.

Il tritech è un prodotto della Farman, si trova in farmacia, se non
ce l'hanno in casa puoi fartelo ordinare, in alternativa cerca nei
negozi per l'equitazione

PROTECTION OF DOGS FROM BITES OF PHLEBOTOMINE SANDFLIES BY DELTAMTHRIN
DCOLLARS FOR CONTROL OF CANINE LEISHMANIASIS

Dog collars made of PVC plastic impregnated with the pyrethroid insecticide
deltamethrin at 40 mg/g were investigated for their protective efficacy
against phlebotomine sandflies.Collared dogs were kept separately (two
untreated control dogs lived together) in outdoor enclosures,each with a
kennel,in the Cevennes,southern France.To measure sandfly mortality and
anti-feeding effects due to the deltamethrin-impregnated collars worn
continuously by the dogs for up to 8 months,each dog was periodically
sedated and exposed for 2 hours to 150-200 laboratory reared Phlebotomus
perniciosus females (plus c.25 males) inside a net (1.2 m square,1.8 m high)
indoors.After dogs were removed from the nets,allowed to recover and
returned to kennels,any dead sandflies were collected from inside the net
and counted.Surviving flies were kept overnight the scored according to
whether they were still alive or dead,unfed or bloodfed. From tests carried
out up to 34 weeks after the dogs began wearing collars,the overall numbers
of blood-fed female sandflies recatured were 75 from two dogs with collars
compared with 1911 from two collarless dogs.Thus,for every 100 flies fed on
collarless dogs only 4 fed on collared dogs.i.e. the collars protected dogs
from 96% of the bites and this activity was maintained for up to 34
weeks.During the same period ,the percentage of recaptured female sandflies
that had fed on collared dogs was 0-12% compared to 55-95% on collarless
dogs.Immediately after dogs were taken out of the nets,21-60% of flies
confined with the collared dogs were found dead,compared to 0-12% with the
controls. It is concluded that,at least in the Mediterranean subregion,this
insecticidal collar would protect a dog from the majority of sandfly bites
and retain a killing effect for a complete sandfly season.Moreover,it seems
likely that the use of collars on all dogs in a focus of Leishmania infatum
would reduce contact between sandfly vectors and canine reservoir hosts
sufficiently to diminish the risk of infection for humans as well as dogs.
