Abstract

The long-term application of deltamethrin and neem oil mixed with karanj oil and camphor against lice and ivermectin and pestoban control packages against mange were found to cure infection and lead to increased body weight gain, amounting up to Rs. 106.24, 95.61, 139.11 and 158.49 per animal, respectively. The untreated control goats remained infested.
