Concentrated Lime Sulfur Dip for Dogs, Cats and Horses, 16 oz Bottle Makes Up to 4 Gallons for Diluted Skin Care
Concentrated lime sulfur dip provides a diluted topical skin-care treatment for dogs, cats, puppies, kittens and horses. Vet Basics supplies a sixteen-ounce concentrate intended for conditions such as ringworm, mange and non-specific dermatoses when a veterinarian confirms that lime sulfur is appropriate.
This concentrate must be diluted before use. Mix four ounces per gallon of water, or up to the stated maximum of eight ounces per gallon only when directed; never exceed that concentration. Wear gloves, work in a well-ventilated area, apply the diluted solution with a sponge, massage affected skin, and allow the coat to air-dry without rinsing. Prevent licking or ingestion until fully dry and repeat only at the label interval of five to seven days. The sulfur odor is strong. Avoid eyes, mouth and broken skin unless a veterinarian directs otherwise. Obtain a diagnosis before treating widespread or worsening lesions, and seek urgent care for accidental ingestion, breathing trouble or severe irritation. Keep the concentrate away from children and do not use on humans.
