Prevent contact between clean hogs and infested hogs to stop mite and lice spread. All hogs are susceptible though well cared for animals resist effects. Spray small pigs at six weeks, then again two to three weeks later. Breeding stock should be sprayed six weeks before farrowing, with a second treatment two to three weeks later.
