Description
Administration:
For external use only.
0.7-2ml product per kg bodyweight.
Recommended for treatment in sheep 3 weeks post shearing.
The veterinary medicinal product must be applied with a manual or automatic dosing gun, fitted with a spray nozzle, which guarantees the correct spreading of the product on the fleece. Best results will be achieved by holding the gun approximately 45 cm from the sheep during application. Apply as a fan spray along the spine of the animal in bands at least 10 cm wide from the middle of the shoulders and in an arc around the crutch and tail. Half the dose should be applied along the spine with the remainder over the tail and crutch area.
Clikzin Pour On is for the prevention of blowfly strike in sheep due to Lucilia sericata. It is best applied before an anticipated blowfly challenge, or when a blowfly challenge is identified on the farm.
It is recommended that animals with dirty back-ends are dagged or crutched prior to application. If dagging or crutching is undertaken in the weeks following application, these animals should be re-treated, otherwise protection could be lost.
Do not apply during heavy rainfall, or when such conditions are expected. The resulting wash out may reduce the protection period.
Treated sheep must be kept away from watercourses for at least one hour after treatment. There is a serious risk to aquatic life if this advice is not followed.
The veterinary medicinal product should be administered before or at the start of predicted fly activity but is also suitable for use during the fly season.
