Resumo
Mites are ectoparasites that commonly inhabit the skin and feathers of birds, although common, little is known about the mites and its treatment. This work aims to report the treatment of a Calopsite (Nhimphicus hollandicus) infested by Megninia spp., using selamectin and permethrin. Single dose selamectin 10mg / kg was directly applied on the back of the calopsite, repeating the dose after 15 days, a 0.25% permethrin based talc-containing drug was also prescribed to discharge into the environment in which the animal lived. It was concluded that the treatment against Megninia spp. infestation, using selamectin 10mg / kg and 0.25% permethrin, was effective, with total recovery of the animal.(AU)
