Ivermectin treatment prevents and treats lice, mites and internal parasites. Even if your guinea pigs are not in touch with others they can still get these parasites. They can lie dormant and will activate when the animal is under the weather, aging or under stress.
You can either put a drop on the ear of the injectable Ivermectin (though you don’t inject it just a pea sized drop on the outer skin of the ear) This is a great method if you have a lot of animals or you can use a horse wormer paste that contains Ivermectin and put a pea sized amount in their mouth. This is more economical if you have a small herd.

RINGWORM PREVENTATIVE
Shampoo your guinea pigs 4x a year at least and use any anti dandruff shampoo (has antifungal properties), or use Davis Miconazole. Lather up and let it soak in for 5 minutes and rinse out. Make sure you cover every single part of your guinea pig including the face, around the eyes, ears and nose.
