The Lasota is not an injectable, in other words, you need not use a syringe and needle to vaccinate your birds. I recently spoke to a very well know veterinarian about using the Lasota. He uses it and is quite satisfied with its ability to prevent PMV-1. The veterinarian explained in detail how he uses it, and Foys is quite pleased to pass on this information. Before I describe how to use it, you must be aware that once you open the small bottle, you must use it all or dispose of what you do not use. THE LASOTA MUST BE KEPT COLD, NOT FROZEN. Keep it in the refrigerator until you are ready to use it. The first method to use it is in the drinking water, but this is not recommended because it may not do the job, as it is assuming the pigeon drinks enough of the water, but this is not always the case. If you have a very large flock, you may have to go this route, but if you have some valuable or some very special pigeons, it is suggest you use the second method on at least those. When using the vaccine in the drinking water, you should first do the following: Do not feed them the night before, or if you use a cafeteria feeder, remove it. The next morning, place the feed before them and they will eat rapidly. 3-4 hours later put a gallon of distilled water, with the vaccine added, in front of them. You want them to be very thirsty so they will drink. The vaccine loses its potency after just 3-4 hours, which is why you want them to drink right away. If you work during the day, it probably would be best to treat on the weekend. The second method requires you to handle each bird. Open the bottle and add a small amount of distilled water, which is available at most stores. Fill the Lasota bottle with distilled water and shake to dissolve the vaccine. Add this to a 2 ounces dropper bottle and fill the remainder of the bottle with water. Using the eye dropper, place one drop directly into the eye and then one directly into nose hole. When giving the drops in the nostril, hold a finger over the opposite nostril to close it and repeat when you do the other nostril. By doing this, the drop will be sucked right into the nostril. It is recommended that you start with the Lasota two months before the race or show season, and keep doing it until the race or show season is over. It would be best to catch all birds that you plan on vaccinating, before you start with the dropper. Whichever method you decide to do it needs to repeated every 4-6 weeks. You may vaccinate against Paratyphoid using KM-1 Vaccine while using Lasota in the drinking water, in fact it is a good idea. The KM-1 will stimulate the immune system and activate the immune system which in turn will in turn make the Lasota more effective NEXT DAY AIR SHIPPING ONLY IF YOU CHOOSE ANOTHER METHOD, IT IS A RISK THAT YOU TAKE.
