Does anyone have experience with these white euphyilla bugs? I did a treatment of Doc G's and it looks like it completely wiped them out. It's been a week and I haven't seen any. Does anyone know how they produce? Eggs or live birth? I'm wondering if I'll need to do a follow up treatment or not.

Dr Gs does work as does interceptor pills. I would do one more shot in a week And in the meantime look daily for eggs

Hi
Have you tried using the dip solution
That's what I used, but did a full tank treatment vs just a dip. It works great against white euphyilla bugs. It has Milbemcyn oxime which is the same ingredient interceptor.

Thanks for the reply! The bugs are so small I don't know if you could see the eggs. Anyways I did decide to do a follow up treatment. First treatment 48 hours, then 9 days later started my second treatment. Hoping I'll never see these bloodsuckers again.
