It's competition time again! Name our new shampoo and WIN £15 WORTH OF GORGEOUS GUINEAS GOODIES of your choice.
This new shampoo is designed to rid your piggies of external parasites - Lice and Hay Mites. These little beasties are all too common in guinea pigs, and Lice can be particularly stubbon to eliminate. Many people use human Lice treatments for guineas, but most of these are stuffed full of chemicals and potentially harmful pesticides.
Here are some of the key points about our new shampoo that might inspire you to come up with an innovative name:
- designed specifically for guineas' sensitive skin
- gentle on the skin, but the active ingredients work quickly to eliminate the Lice
- Cedarwood essential oil is used, this not only smells warm and
woody, but also has insecticidal properties
- contains herbal extracts of Quassia and Neem, both of which work in
clearing the Lice from the hair
- just two shampoos one week apart usually clear the Lice completely
Comments from Wendi at Thistle Cavies Rescue who has been helping with the testing: "I loved your Lice shampoo Chrissie. I had a persistant problem with Lice on Poppet - despite being sprayed, and bathed in Lyclear, but your shampoo has done the job. So far so good, it is nice to see her with out the 'dust flecks' in her coat so a big thank you for that."
This shampoo has taken several months of research and testing - all it needs now is a suitably inspired name, so get your creative hats on!
CLOSING DATE FOR ENTRIES IS THURSDAY 8th SEPTEMBER @ 3pm. Please send your emails to lice@gorgeousguineas.com
Thanks for your help, and I'm looking forward to some great entries!
Best wishes, Chrisse
