nolvasan - purchase?

lele Jun 09, 2005 07:20 PM

I have gotten my Nolvasan from my feed store and it always lasted long, but with Darwin I am using it a LOT more (anyone with a beardie understands - I think I will nickname him Sir Poopsalot!

Anyway, I have looked at a few places online but wondering if anyone knows of a good online retailer/price for it. I would be looking for a gallon - thanks

Have you thought about asking your vet if you can buy a large bottle from them?
That is if they use it.

Most vet hospitals will have it and if you have a good relationship with your vet, they may be willing to help you out.

Just a thought,
Shannon

You can also get Virosan from Pro Exotics in Denver. A gallon of concentrate that you dilute down to use. I use it on everything, as it's very safe. They ship quickly from their website. Not sure how the price compares but it's probably competitive.

I bought mine on kingsnake classifieds( lights, supplies ect.)

BUT the best buy I just got last week, was on ebay, seller was having a close out sale, I got enough for 2 gallons for 1.00 (4 oz bottle)

I will let ya know if he still has it ! I like it alot, use it everyday on slate in the tanks and on the floor where they run!

Nolvasan and Virosan are anti microbial scrubs. You can use it diluted to wash cages, bowls, fake plants, perches, etc. It is not very toxic to the herp itself if used correctly. I use it on most of my pet stuff.

PHEve Jun 10, 2005 11:24 PM

emailed me back and said he was not selling it anymore, no one seemed interested, and he was not making anything.

Shame it was the best price I ever paid. I know its sold on the kingsnake classifieds in supplies also.

I'm thinking about getting my own gallon figure it has to be cheaper in the long run. I really like using it on everything.

Hey for everyone who does use it, I have heard that once diluted ya have to use up your gallon or however much you make, before 6 weeks or it loses its Strength.

I ended up getting the generic brand from OmahaVaccine. I called to inquire about the differences and they said the basic solution of Nolvasan is stronger and should not be used directly on the anumals, but that the KHR CHLORHEXIDINE SOLUTION can be diluted to be used on an animal (not sure about herps). KHR is 1/3 the price AND I got $5 off as a first time customer! 1 gallon shipped was $13
