This is thanks to the acetic acid that composes it, since this substance is responsible for providing the sour taste to vinegar, which fleas deeply hate along with its smell. This research study was carried out at ‘AGROGAMA’ Veterinary Clinic located between Ricardo Garcés and Rocafuerte Streets in ‘Eloy Alfaro’ neighborhood of the city of Salcedo, Cotopaxi Province. The objective of this research study was to evaluate the anti-flea effect of the Shampoo with White Vinegar (Acetic Acid) at 10% and 20% in domestic dogs. The methodology used was experimental since 30 dogs were used and divided into three groups of 10 experimental units for each treatment. The duration of this research study was 45 days, each experimental unit was bathed 4 times with an interval of 15 days; the last bath that was carried out was on day 45 where the last flea count was carried out in each experimental unit, through the drawer test. It was possible to conclude with this study that the parasite load was lower with the implementation of the T2 treatment (20%), since with this dose of White Vinegar (Acetic Acid) practically the dogs were free of fleas. Next, the T3 treatment (Cypermethrin) showed the same control over the flea population in the animal. And finally, the T1 treatment (10%) was the one that obtained the least results, but it was also observed that it minimally controlled the flea population. In the analysis of cost per treatment, it was established that T1 cost 2.90 dollars, T2 had an expense of 3.30 dollars in a liter of Shampoo with 10% and 20% white Vinegar respectively; while the T3 invested 10.00 dollars, for the purchase of the anti-flea shampoo (Cypermethrin). As a result, the treatments with White Vinegar were economical compared to Treatment 3, at the same time demonstrating that the Shampoo with Vinegar at 20% was more effective than the other treatments. |
