STAPH IN SHOW GOATS…HOW TO TREAT SKIN INFECTION IN GOATS
Aug 12
One of the frustrating skin problems we see frequently in show goats is dermatitis caused by various species of Staphylococcus.

Staph is a normal skin bacteria that can be found on healthy goat skin but it can become a problem when it gets out of control.

Staph dermatitis usually starts as an infected hair follicle and looks like a big pimple. A lot of time that’s as far as it goes and early treatment can keep it limited to no more than a little pustule.

However, untreated (and sometimes when treated) it can spread and become a generalized and much more problematic issue.

It’s important to keep a close eye on your goats skin daily and if you see any small pustules treat them ASAP.

Traditionally we have recommended topical treatment with chlorhexidine or povidone iodine scrubs and systemic antibiotics if it spreads beyond a pustule.

The esterfied MCTs in Provilli are a valuable addition to the treatment protocol.

The bar graph represents the effect of using dilute Provilli on Staph. It is highly effective at killing Staph while the emulsifiers and medium chains are beneficial to the skin and won’t dry it out like soaps. Using Provilli at one ounce per quart cut’s the Staph population in half within an hour and virtually eliminates it within 12 hours.

Another point that a lot of people don’t think about is sanitizing their equipment like clipper blades, brushes, halters, chains, stands, etc. Chlorhexidine is a good disinfectant to use and you can just mix it in a bucket clean the equipment first then just drop your smaller equipment in then pull it out and let it air dry. For bigger stuff clean it first then use a sprayer to spray the disinfectant on every surface and let it air dry. Barbasol is another good disinfectant choice for clippers heads and blades.

We have a lot of customers that use Provilli routinely as a preventative. You can either add it to its own spray bottle or add one ounce per quart to your leave in conditioner.

If you have any questions or concerns please don’t hesitate to call or text.

THE FACTS ABOUT MANGE IN SHOW PIGS
Jan 18
We get asked about mange mites almost every day.

A lot of disinformation about this external parasite gets spread on social media. We thought we'd lay out the facts.

The mite Sarcoptes scabiei var suis causes almost all mange in swine. The mite is under 1/32 inch in length, gray to white. They are visible to the naked eye when on a black background.

The life cycle from egg to adult only occurs in the skin of a pig and takes about 10-l5 days.

Mites and ova survive off a pig for only short periods of time. They live longer when its cool and moist and shorter when it is warm and dry. At normal controlled temperatures survival away from the pig is less than 2 hours.

The take away here is that mites cannot survive in bedding. The shavings or straw you bought at the farm store isn't where the mites came from.

Mite survival in the environment is only a practical concern in the winter in barns that aren't heated.

Mites spread pig to pig and almost always first colonize the inside of the ear. Itching is the hallmark symptom. The lesions range from red raised pustules to dry scaly appearing lesions.

To make a sure diagnosis we encourage you to do a skin scraping from the inside of the ear and look for the mange mites. You can do that by looking at the sample under a microscope on low power. If you don't have a microscope put the scraping on a black sheet of paper. Gently blow away the dry skin and you'll see the white or light gray mites on the paper.

We often see people post pictures of pigs with various skin conditions on social media. Without fail the Facebook "veterinarians" diagnose mange. They go on to tell the poster how they are certain the mange came from bedding purchased from a certain farm store. More often than not they are incorrect about the diagnosis. Now you know their story about the source of the problem is also hogwash.

Show pigs are susceptible to dermatitis. This is partially because we wash away the natural oils that protect the skin. Then if shampoo isn't rinsed completely dermatitis is almost certain. Many of the lesions I see posted look more like garden variety dermatitis than mange. That is why a scraping is necessary to tell if it is in fact mange. We will write more about other skin issues in a furure blog.

If you confirm it is mange then of course you need to treat it. Dectomax or ivermectin are the treatments of choice. Administer two doses two weeks apart. You can also use prolate either in conjunction with the injectables or by itself. If you choose prolate we recommend spraying the pig completely every 3 days 6 times over 18 days. Use a sprayer with a wand. You can't get adequate coverage of the underside without a wand.

Takeaways:

· The mange mite lifecycle is all in the skin of pigs.

· Mites only survive off a pig for a short period of time.

Less than 2 hours at 70 degrees

· Mites CANNOT survive in a bag of shavings or bale of straw.

· Not every skin lesion is mange.

· Confirm mite infestation with a skin scraping.

To Control Mange:

· Injectable treatment with ivermectin or Dectomax.

· Spray with Prolate every 3 days for 6 treatments.
