Hi

I have used Fluvenbet and it does the trick.

I know on the pot it says to use for 7 days, but how often should you use it ( monthly, 6 monthly, yearly????? Confused )

Is there a minimum amount of time inbetween dosages???

the recommended time is twice per year, but our vet used to suggest we do three times per year instead as our chickens roamed on the same ground 365 days per year instead of being rotated on fresh plots

I think twice a year is recommended - spring and autumn being best.

Twice per year is what I was told too. But - if you are treating a known infestation then you are supposed to repeat after just 3 weeks.
