His often/ what frequency should I dip In bayer to break the egg laying cycle?

Assuming I removed the frag plug, dip in bayer (10ml in 4oz water) , rinse three times in saltwater then place in QT. How many more times and how long apart should I dip.

My current strategy of one dip every ten days isn’t working. I can’t seem to outrun the egg laying.

Thanks
 
what kind of pests/eggs are you dealing with and on what coral?

A one inch red bristleworm with yellow hairs that lives in a big piece of GSP. It’s folded around the plug so I don’t think the bayer is getting in there.

A bunch of little white ‘Roly polys’ with hairy legs.

I saw one flatworm but I got him. 1/8” long. Assume there are more

Large GSP (ball pit ball sized)
Small GSP (thumb nail sized)
Fungia
War favia
Brain favite
Pulsing Xenia
Duncan
Ultra green branching hammer
Purple cap branching hammer

Thanks!
