Stricker1, the ivermectin paste that I started to buy at Tractor Supply has boticide in it to kill the bot flies. I didn't buy it for this reason because I didn't know if it was safe. I feel very confident that the Ivermectin paste would work, but didn't want to be taking an added ingredient that I didn't know anything about. Glad it worked for your fur baby.
My box says boticide as well. After some quick research, it looks like boticide isn't an ingredient. The Ivermectin itself is considered a dewormer and boticide when given to horses. I couldn't find it as a separate ingredient anywhere on the box other than saying it's a boticide. They are just advertising the effects of the Ivermectin. There are probably hundreds of uses for the stuff.
