Great stuff May 12, 2020
I have four cats and four horses. They developed a tapworm infestation last spring after a bout with fleas. We treated them with a different wormer and thoroughly cleaned the floors, furniture and their bedding. A few weeks later they still had them. I went through the same process again. but failed. fortunately, my friend recommended this and used it Problem solved, great stuff
