For the prevention of blowfly strike (Lucilia sericata) in domestic rabbits for 10 weeks after dosing. Rearguard comes supplied ready-to-use in a bottle with built-in applicator sponge. Rabbits should be treated at 8-10 week intervals under conditions of repeated blowfly challenge. Rearguard does not repel flies but it will prevent any maggots from forming & damaging the animal. If the rabbit is continually attractive to flies, this may be due to an underlying disease e.g. diarrhoea or incontinence, or a lack of hygiene within its housing. In such cases further advice should be sought from your veterinary surgeon.
