RONIVET - S, TREATMENT FOR CANKER.

Ronivet-S is the treatment of choice for birds ( budgies, pigeons and canaries ) suffering from canker ( trichomoniasis ) or other protozoal diseases eg. Cochlosoma in finches.
Ronivet-S is a water soluble, water stable chemical that has extremely high safety margins. It can be used at any stage of the birds breeding cycle to combat protozoal infection. Ronivet-S does not make the male birds infertile.
Canker is the most commonly encountered protozoal disease in aviculture. It can devastate pigeon and budgie breeding flocks and is a significant disease in exhibition canaries. The classic "cankers " ( large yellowish masses in the throats and crops of birds ) are the "tip of the iceberg " when it comes to the disease. Many other effects are seen from Trichomonads.
Because protozoa are persistent organisms, treatments need to be part of an aviary/loft management plan. Preventative treatments are recommended to control the disease. New introductions and birds in quarantine should be routinely treated at recommended rates.
Resistance to antiprotozoal drugs is common. Unlike the other chemicals in its group, Ronidazole is safe to administer at up to 5 times recommended rate. In difficult situations treatment at 5X dose for 3 days then normal dose for 4 days has been found to be effective.
During the pigeon racing season, it is recommended that the race team be treated 24 hours after returning from a race. This ensures that infections picked up in baskets or on the way home do not become established.
Other protozoal diseases can be treated once a definite diagnosis is achieved.
