[QUOTE="Farminlund, post: 204897, member: 1132"] This is not the time of year to use a wormer like ivermectin as it kills grubs as well as lice & worms. Killing grubs at this time of year could be deadly for the cow if it was not treated for grubs in the fall. If a grub treatment was done in the fall then the use of such a medication will be fine for either open, settled, or nursing cows. Otherwise, use a medication to kill lice only like lysoff. Or wait a few weeks & the warmer weather will take care of the problem on its own (lice problems usually peak in late winter & disappear as the temperatures warm with spring/summer). [/QUOTE]
