About ScruffGuard

Available in reusable and disposable varieties, a ScruffGuard can be used to administer substances subcutaneously, as well as intraperitoneal and intramuscular routes. It can be highly useful when implanting microchips. Studies have overwhelmingly shown than picking up mice by their tails increases their stress levels and harms the wellbeing of the animal- with the ScruffGuard you can avoid danger to the rodent or handler and provide peace of mind when handling your animals.
