Abstract:
Rintal 2.4% premix (Bayer) in single dose 7.5 mg of active substance on kg body weight was given to the calves of red and fallow deer. Effectiveness of deworming against nematodes from family Trichostrongylidae was 85.2% in red and 97.8% in fallow deer. Against namatodes from genus Trichocephalus the effectiveness was higher extending in red deer 98.1%, and in fallow deer 99.5%. Anthelmintic was not effective against nematodes Varestrongylus sagittatus and Elaphostrongylus cervi.
