Again a warning about deadly paralysis ticks.
Please make sure daily tick searching is a part of your prevention routine.
Tick searching, along with using an appropriate tick prevention is vital on the Central Coast.

02/11/2022

BEWARE!! PARALYSIS TICKS ARE ABOUT AND CAN BE DEADLY.

As we have posted previously there is a severe shortage of life saving tick anti serum. Please see
an excerpt from our drug wholesaler:

“Unfortunately there is national supply shortage on AVSL Tick Serum. There has been significant demand this season and a delay in supply on our recent orders. We currently have no stock available and considering the amount of tick cases at the present, the next couple of weeks are going to have a number of challenges.”

PLEASE MAKE SURE YOUR PETS ARE UP TO DATE WITH THEIR PREVENTATIVES

01/11/2022

Beware of Deadly Paralysis Ticks!!
With the warmer weather after the wet period there have been an influx of animals presenting with paralysis tick toxicity. Several animals have been hospitalised for treatment TODAY.
Please ensure your pets are UP TO DATE with preventatives AND you are daily tick searching all pets.

There is an expected shortage of the antiserum this season and wholesalers have placed caps on hospitals ordering to prevent stockpiling of life saving antiserum!
