Ticks on goats

I can tell that it is going to be a BAD year for ticks here...I've already found two on two different goats. How do you treat goats for ticks? (one is about a week out from kidding, BTW).

Thanks for any advice.

  • Thanks Deborah. I'll look into that (as well as the purchase of some guineas)!
  • Wow! I've seen two ticks on my goats in ten years! Until I started this group, I thought that ticks didn't like goats. Someone on here who lives down south had a bunch on her goats one time. It's not organic, but you can use Cylence. That's what they recommended at U of I when we found a tick on a buck that I took down there.
