Therefore, this method can be attributed to the Express method. At the same time one can determine the intensity of infestation by microdistilleries. Veterinary drug «Polyparacid» recommended for treatment and prevention. In connection with absence of microfilariae in the blood of dogs after 3 months after treatment, we can assume that polymerized has not only microfilaricidal action, but has a detrimental effect on the imaginal form of dirofilaria.
