It is and you will likely not find Furan-2 which works. Other meds with nitrofurazone will work. Zoa Pox is a disease that causes tissue recession and eventually death if not treated.

Thanks for the feedback. What's weird is that the zoa is growing new heads. It's not showing signs of being ill. I'll look for a med containing that ingredient.

Short of a more detailed and focused picture I don’t believe that to be pox. Some agaves, magicians and Hawaiian PE have white or cream-colored flecks in their tissue.

Pox is going to present as a discrete spots- often slightly raised.

I agree, unless they look like zits and bumpy they arent pox. If theyre smooth on the flesh its natural coloring.
