  • Title: [Demodicosis in a Toggenburg goat].
    Author: Brügger M, Braun U.
    Journal: Schweiz Arch Tierheilkd; 2000 Nov; 142(11):639-42. PubMed ID: 11103616.
    Abstract:
    This report describes the findings in a four-year-old Toggenburg goat with demodicosis. The skin had multifocal nodules, which were approximately 5 mm in diameter and contained thick yellow exsudate. Microscopic examination of the exsudate revealed numerous Demodex caprae. The goat was clipped and treated topically every five to seven days for a total of 12 treatments with a 1:100 dilution of amitraz (Ectodex, Hoechst Roussel Vet). The treatment resulted in a marked decrease in the number of skin nodules. However, new nodules appeared after treatment was discontinued and complete clinical cure was not achieved.
