I did not hear about this condition until yesterday, so I googled "red mange" and found some interesting info,; specifically a "mite" called Demodex Mites burrow in the hair follicles and skin of certain species of dogs. To your specific question about using zinc oxide, I do not know about the remedies except what is discussed on several of the websites. But you may check to see if there is any research (vets or universities) using zinc oxide against these pests. According to what I've read, there are several treatments (Amitraz, Tactik, Mitoban or Milbemycin Oxime) that help along with weekly dippings.

Hope some of this helps.

What happens if you combine zinc oxide and copper?

Reaction of Zinc with Copper(I) oxide (cuprous oxide, Cu2O), a red powder; 2 Zn + Cu2O →2 Zn O + 2 Cu and Reaction of Zinc with Copper(II) oxide (cupric oxide, CuO), a black powder; Zn + CuO →Zn O + Cu Reason :- The most reactive metals (for example Zn) can displace any of the metals (for example Cu) which are lower in the reactivity series; the higher metal reduce the ions of the lower metal. Reference : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reactivity_series

What happens to the formula of zinc oxide when heated?

Zinc Oxide is originally a white powder. When heated up, it turns yellow but does not decompose and when it is removed from the heat it gradually goes back to its original white colour. If you heat it strongly enough to very high tempereatures it will sublime without apparent decomposition. The reason for the yellow colour is that a minute amount of oxyegen evaporates from the lattice (70 ppm) the small number of zinc atoms produce lattice defects that give rise to the colour. Doping zinc oxide with minute traces of zinc will give a range of colours, yellow, green brown and red.

Why zinc oxide yellow while hot and white while cold?

this has to do with the frequency of light the zinc sends out and reflects. Just as iron turns red and when very hot white zinc turns yellow. In a old light bulb a wire of wolfram is used to create yellow light. So the light that it sends and reflects is a material property
