Mink and other fur bearing animals kept intensively in cages are susceptible to viral and bacterial diseases, which may be spread by vermin or escaped animals

Mink enteritis virus                                                        parvovirus

Mink Aleutian disease (ADV)                                       (amdo)parvovirus

Distemper                                                                       paramyxovirus

Blackleg                                                                           clostridium spp

Septicaemia                                                                    streptococcus spp

See the disease pathogen control chart for comprehensive information on specific disease identity and Omnicide dilution rates.

Rabbits

Rabbits raised for meat or fur are susceptible to highly infectious diseases, which are often spread by wild rabbit populations

Viral haemorrahagic disease                                       rabbit calicivirus

Pasteurellosis (Snuffles)                                               pasteurella multocida

Bordetella                                                                       bordetella bronchiseptica

Ringworm                                                                       trichophyton mentagrophytes

Omnicide must be diluted to 1:50 to disinfect housing and equipment contaminated by Trichophyton mentagrophytes. See the disease pathogen control chart for comprehensive information on specific disease identity and Omnicide dilution rates.
