Ready to use spray-on sheep dip for the preventative control of blowfly strike on sheep.
Active ingredient: 60 g/L Cyromazine
SHAKE WELL BEFORE USE
- General Information
CYGUARD SPRAY-ON is an easy to use spray-on, which will give up to 6 weeks residual protection against flystrike caused by all the commonly found strike flies including the Australian blowfly (Lucilia cuprina). CYGUARDSPRAY-ON can be used on all breeds of sheep. CYGUARDSPRAY-ON is suitable for use on sheep between 4 and 12 weeks after shearing. A shorter period of protection may occur if CYGUARD SPRAY-ON is applied incorrectly, if there is excessive fleece soiling or if wool infections such as mycotic dermatitis (fleece rot) are present. Prolonged heavy rain following treatment may also reduce the protection period provided by CYGUARD SPRAY-ON.
