A tick development inhibitor that kills ticks progressively; therefore, it can take two to three weeks for cattle to be visibly free of ticks.
No additional treatment is necessary during that time, even on heavily infested animals.
Oztik begins to inhibit tick development within three days of treatment and may give adequate control of ticks for prolonged periods, depending on growth of cattle and the effects of lactation.
Features:
Oztik controls susceptible strains of cattle tick (Boophilus microplus) & Inhibits tick development within three days.
Oztik provides up to 12 weeks protection* from a single treatment (*Boophilus microplus. Protection period may be affected by environmental conditions and livestock factors). Calves receive adequate protection when suckling on their mothers.
Oztik is Australian owned and Australian made for Australian conditions
Oztik is a ready-to-use pour-on formulation.
Oztik is used for the strategic control of the cattle tick, Boophilus microplus (including all known acaricide resistant strains) on beef cattle.
Oztik breaks the tick life cycle.
When treated with Oztik, immature ticks are unable to moult to the next stage of their life cycle, and no larvae will hatch from eggs laid by treated females.
Oztik not only provides long-term tick protection for cattle but it may also help lower the tick burden in the pasture.
