Parasite Block Lick (Available on prescription) The Safari Parasite Block, although the same ingredients as the Safari Game Block, also includes a remedy developed by a leading manufacturer/distributor of animal health products to control both internal and external parasites. Safari feeds conducted a trial on their farm, using Boer goats to test the efficacy of the block in controlling parasites. Ten goats were divided into two groups of five each. The first group were given the Safari Parasite Block while the second group was denied these blocks. The results were beyond our (and the animal health company’s) wildest expectations. Two weeks later the ticks on the goats that were feeding on the parasite blocks all died. After six weeks, one goat of each group was slaughtered and tested for parasites. The goats that were feeding on the blocks were totally free of parasites as well as their eggs. The block will however not be registered for parasite control in game animals. For this to be done, a separate registration for each species will be needed, with corresponding trials, and this will incur astronomical expenses. The block, like the Safari Game block, contains the best quality ingredients available and everything is bound together by liquid molasses, which also acts as a flavourant.
