| Procedure of Use |
Ectoparasites like lice, "itardi" infest animals like cow, buffalo, and bullocks. As they suck blood from animals body, it slowly becomes weaker. As a remedy, pure and fresh ground nut (Arachis hypogaea) oil is heated slightly and this heated oil is masaged/applied on infested part of the animal. Massaging twice a day for three days, kills such parasites. This practice is in use for last ten years. This is a traditional practice. |
