[QUOTE="tristan, post: 13490, member: 30"] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.veto-pharma.com/products/amiflex/[/URL] something thats a little new thats been recently released in usa. its basically a gel containing amitraz used as a flash treatment. lasts 7 days, reapply at 14 days. squirted in with a caulking gun. downside is extra labor to go do it and be on time, as with all flash treatments. its open to user error, especially as people tend to overdose, or might under dose to save dollars. upside is it could well work really nicely with OAE strips, as a single dose, and replace the spring treatment. it would do a good knockdown and let the oxalic handle the rest. the big factor would be cost. i've only seen one price (in usa), so no idea how accurate that is. but one dose plus staples would still be far cheaper than amitraz/bayvarol/etc and more reliable than oae on its own. that might be the thing that gets beeks away from only using synthetic strips and help combat resistance. your thoughts??
