Drops "Inspector": instructions for use for cats

Drops should be applied to the withers, between the shoulder blades, i.e. on that part of the body that is inaccessible for cats to lick.

Having broken off the tip of the pipette, you need to move the fur apart and drip the product onto the skin in 1-3 places.

One pipette of 0.4 ml is sufficient to treat an animal weighing from 1 to 4 kg. For cats weighing 4-8 kg, you will need a 0.8 ml package. If the pet exceeds the specified weight, then the product is used at the rate of 0.1 ml per kilogram of weight, combining pipettes of various sizes. If the cat weighs less than 1 kg, the calculation is 1 drop (0.05 ml) per 0.5 kg of weight.

Important. For the drug to be effective, until the substances are completely absorbed and distributed, cats should not be washed for 5 days after treatment.

The product is instilled into each ear (regardless of which one is affected) and massaged into the base of the auricle. The remaining amount of the drug is applied from a pipette to the withers. For odecosis, the Inspector is used 2-3 times with a break of 7-10 days. In case of complications of otitis, treatment is supplemented with anti-inflammatory drugs and antibiotics. If microscopy of scrapings shows the presence of ear mites, then after a month the course of treatment should be repeated.

Galina

As soon as winter ends, you immediately need to stock up on tick repellents. I have a white dog, and as you know, ticks are drawn to white like a magnet.

No matter how many remedies I tried before, nothing helped. I've heard about it, but it's expensive. And so the veterinarian advised me to buy inexpensive anti-tick drops Inspector Total S.

I read reviews on the Internet, they all seem to be positive. I decided to buy it. Used it on my lap dog. Well what can I say. I recommend. A month of ticks has disappeared.

The veterinarian said that it also helps against worms, but we have a different remedy for worms. So somehow I didn’t focus on it. They took it exclusively to combat ticks.

Julia

Hello dear dog owners. In this review I would like to talk about the tick repellent for dogs Inspector. In this case, I used these drops on a small Chihuahua dog and I have my own personal opinion about this product.

I won’t tell you that it fights a bunch of pests, both external and internal. Everyone, even if they haven’t read the instructions, have at least heard it somewhere.

I once bought pills, but couldn’t give them to my dog. I simply didn't want to eat. Since then, only drops.

So that's all I preface. I dropped a sneeze on my withers and forgot about ticks for a month. The product is really effective. It costs a penny. Therefore, I will recommend it to all my friends and those who are faced with the problem of ticks in dogs.

I hope my review is helpful to you. Thank you for your attention.

Tatiana

We buy drops for our Spitz, who weighs around 3-4 kg. Therefore, we take Inspector Total S for dogs from 1 to 4 kilograms.

We initially became acquainted with the product on the Internet. We read about it and looked into the reviews. We were convinced that the Inspector's reviews were mostly positive. We decided to buy. I’ll say right away that we don’t go to veterinarians, I know it’s bad, but so far we’ve managed somehow, so no one could advise us anything.

We bought drops and started dripping them in early spring. The instructions stated that the product is valid for 6 weeks. But someone wrote on the Internet that it is better to drip monthly, saying that after 4 weeks there is an effect, but not so pronounced. In principle, we started doing this, and we still do it to this day.

The Spitz is not allergic to the drops. He tolerates everything well, his behavior does not change.

The instructions say that the product also fights helminths. That's why we stopped giving deworming tablets. You never know, suddenly an overdose. In general, we are not doctors, but it’s better not to risk it.

As for fleas, I’ll say this – not at all. There are no ticks either. Once I saw a tick on a dog crawling around its ears. I took it off. This happened during the 3rd week of treatment. After this, such incidents did not occur again.

I like the product because it is inexpensive and really effective. Another huge plus is the absence of allergies or any irritation. We don’t risk trying new means, since we have already clearly chosen the Inspector for ourselves.

Negative reviews

Ksenia

Let me say this - it's a waste of money. Companies like Inspector simply profit from poor dogs that their owners love so much.

I'll tell you my story. My dog ​​often encounters ticks, so as soon as it gets warmer, I immediately treat her at the withers. This time they advised to use the Inspector tool. They said it was inexpensive and effective. I fell for it and bought it. And what do you think? 4 days after treatment, I went to the country and found a tick on my face. In a panic, I went to the clinic to get him out. They pulled me out. The next day I went to the dacha again and again my pet brought a tick on her face. This is just some kind of confusion.

This is my experience using this product. I don't recommend it to anyone.

Nastya

Drops are like drops. Honestly, if I had the financial ability to buy more expensive drugs, I obviously wouldn’t take the Inspector. In terms of efficiency, there are no complaints. I didn’t seem to notice any ticks after treatment. But in terms of the quality of the product itself, there are doubts.

First of all, the packaging is just terrible. You cut off the tip of the pipette and the liquid just pours out. There is also a terrible smell. After treatment, the whole apartment stinks of some kind of fish oil.

The drops themselves are a minus due to the fact that you cannot touch the dog for 5 days. If there are small children, then this is a double problem.

As I said above, in terms of protection everything is normal. But if compared with other drugs, it is better to give preference to them than to the dubious Inspector.
