For horses, apply in two single stripes: approximately two-thirds of the measured dose along the midline from poll to wither, and the remaining portion along the midline over the rump.
Dose Rate
For correct application rates for cattle and horses, refer to the registered product label. Dose is based on liveweight, so weigh or accurately estimate your animals before treatment.
Re-treatment
Treat the whole herd or group at the same time. Re-treatment may be needed if reinfestation occurs later in the season. Refer to the product label for guidance on re-treatment intervals for each pest.
