Not to throw a fly in the ointment (no pun intended), but tread with caution. If Basic H kills flies and parasites, what might it do to your sheep over time? Would you be willing to drink it yourself? Give it to your kids? I've received word from a list member who has done some testing with Basic H and reports that ewe lambs and very old ewes suffer from Basic H because it is a poison. (He has not provided additional detail.)
I'd appreciate everyone who tries Basic H to keep the list informed as to the results--both positive and negative. Since those results might take some time to manifest themselves, we all should keep our eyes open in the interim. Just as there are no scientific studies that prove the effectiveness of Basic H as a deworming agent, there are no studies that indicate any negative effects. It's up to us to find out and share our information.
