Fly Pressure at its Highest

Dipping contractors and farms have been aware that effective measures need to be taken to protect against fly strike NOW.

Chemical choice is part of that. Plenty of chemical put in the right place is the other.

Cyrex combination dip is our top seller at this time of year because of the persistence of the cyromazine and the knock down effect of the spinosad. It is versatile for use in jetters, showers or plunge dips and even through watering cans for small lots. It can be used for spot treatment of strike also.

Cyrazin KO is an alternative to Cyrex. It is a combination of cyromazine and ivermectin. It is licensed for crossbreds and only for use in jetting races. The ivermectin is potent against maggots and lice and will also persist. It is stickier than Cyrex, so will last longer after rain.

Spray-on Options

Local treatment with spray-on options can offer significant advantages.

They are convenient to use, and put chemicals on in high concentration where they are needed.

Click Extra is the longest acting of these, and stock treated in November may need some additional treatment by March. Clikzin and Vetrazin Spray-on are shorter acting products very useful for re-treating keep lambs.
