- For blowfly strike on sheep, see following specific indication directions.
Lice on cattle:
- One application will generally eradicate all lice.
- Complete clearance of all lice may take 4 – 5 weeks during which time lice hatch from the eggs and are killed.
- A very few lice may survive on a small minority of animals.
Flies on cattle:
- For the treatment and prevention of infestations by biting and non-biting flies.
- Where horn-flies predominate, treatment and prevention of infestations can be expected for 4 – 8 weeks.
- Treatment for flies should not be repeated within four weeks.
Ticks on sheep:
- Application to the mid-point of the shoulders will provide useful treatment and prevention of infestations by ticks attaching to animals of all ages, for up to 6 weeks after treatment.
Keds and lice on sheep:
- Application to the mid-point of the shoulders of sheep in short or long fleece will reduce the incidence of a biting louse or ked infestation over a 4 – 6 week period after treatment.
It is advisable to:
- treat shortly after shearing (animals with short fleece),
- keep treated sheep separated from untreated sheep to avoid re-infestation.
N.B. For treatment and prevention of infestations by ticks, keds and lice on sheep, the fleece should be parted and the Spot-On applied to the skin of the animal.
Established blowfly strike on sheep:
- Apply directly to the maggot infected area as soon as the fly strike is seen.
- One application will ensure blowfly larvae are killed in a short time.
- In the case of more advanced strike lesions, clipping out of stained wool before treatment is advisable.
Lice and ticks on lambs:
- Application to the mid-point of the shoulders will provide useful treatment and prevention of infestations by ticks for up to 6 weeks after treatment, and will reduce the incidence of biting lice over a 4-6 week period after treatment.
