Malaban Wash for Cats

Malaban Wash

Topical treatment for skin parasites

Malaban Wash is a medicated rinse used to control fleas, lice, and mites on cats. It's ideal for treating skin irritations caused by external parasites and can also be used to clean kennels and bedding. It's a flexible, vet-approved solution for managing infestations at the source.

How Malaban Wash works

Malaban Wash contains maldison, an insecticide that kills fleas, mites, and lice on contact. It helps soothe irritated skin while addressing the cause of itching and discomfort. It's a wash-off treatment that can be diluted and applied with a sponge or used as a rinse.

When to use Malaban Wash

This product is best used during active flea or mite outbreaks or when your cat is suffering from skin irritation due to parasites. It's also useful for treating environments like bedding or outdoor shelters. It should not be used as a long-term preventative but rather as a short-term solution for visible infestations.

Important safety information

Malaban Wash is not suitable for very young kittens or cats that groom excessively, as ingestion of the product can be harmful. Always use in a well-ventilated area and rinse thoroughly. Avoid contact with eyes and consult your vet before use, especially if your cat has sensitive skin or existing health conditions.

Why choose Malaban Wash?

Malaban Wash offers a cost-effective way to deal with parasites on your cat and in their environment. It's especially useful if you need fast, topical treatment and want something that can also help disinfect flea-prone areas around the home.
