Product description

INDICATIONS: Cattle: For plunge dips, spray races and hand spraying.

  • Controls ticks and kills biting and sucking lice.
  • Protects against nuisance flies and screw-worm infestations.
  • Sheep and goats: Kills sheep and scab mites and goat mange mites.
  • Controls itch mites and ticks (including Karoo Paralysis ticks), kills lice and keds, and protects against blowfly strike and midge worry.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE: Use only as directed. Shake well before use. Protect from extremes of heat and cold.

  • Premixing: For best results add a measured volume of concentrate to double the volume of water (while stirring) to produce a “cream”; then pour the premix into the bulk of water in the tank and stir to complete dispersion.
  • Dipping of sheep and goats: Dipping method: Conventional method: Fresh filling: 1:1000 (1 L concentrate in 1000 L water)
  • Replenishment: 1:600 – when one-third of the dipwash has been removed from the tank.
  • Constant replenishment method: Fresh filling: 1:1000 (1 L concentrate in 1000 L water)
  • Replenishment: 1:6000

These dilution rates are to be used when dipping for the following:

  • To kill keds and lice on sheep and goats and goat mange mites: Dip once only.
  • To kill sheep scab mites: Dip twice at 8-10 day interval. N.B. Sheep scab is a notifiable disease and must be reported to the State veterinarian.
  • For control of itch mites: Dip twice at 14 days interval. All sheep must be dipped including sucklings and young lambs.
  • For protection against blowfly strike: Repeat every 2 weeks or as necessary.
  • For protection against midge worry: Repeat every 4 weeks or as necessary.
  • To prevent post-dipping lameness: Zinc sulphate should be added to the dipwash at 1 kg per 1000 L water, particularly if it has been standing for a day or more.
  • For control of lumpy wool: Add 1 kg zinc sulphate per 400 L of dipwash.
  • Belly bath: Dilution rates – as for “Dipping”above.
  • For control of paralysis ticks: Repeat every 10 weeks or as necessary.
