ok to use worm away with ronex?

Post by danaday » Tue Jan 14, 2014 1:04 pm

Hi everyone
I just have a curious question regarding worming and etc. Is it possible to use worm away at the same time as ronex(the 6% strength-I think). Or should I just treat with ronex for 7 days then follow with worm away and vice versa. btw both products are by Morning bird. I just got parrot finches and wanted to be safe than sorry. Any thoughts or how each of you personally administer these products will be appreciated. :)

At the Morning Bird site they have a product interaction chart and it says not at the same time.
Here's the link to their page

If you are using Ronex 6% that is not strong enough for finches, they have a higher metabolism...you can double the amount of powder to one times the amount of water...this is safe to do.

Cindy- can you explain that in details. So does that mean i should use 1 teaspoon instead of half teaspoon per 6oz or whatever is recommended on the pkging? Im not familiar with ronex6% at all. Btw thanks for thr heads up for it being not strong enough. I didnt know. :)

(not sure how your instructions read for a single dose)

this is just an example.....pretend it says 1/4 teaspoon of Ronex 6% to 1 cup of water simply increase the Ronex 6% to 1/2 teaspoon to 1 cup of water.

Double the powder stated but keep the water amount the same.

The recommend Ronex 12% for finches.
