PYTHON II INSECTICIDE TAG
Use
PYthon is a slow-release, plastic ear tag containing a synergized formulation of zeta-cypermethrin, a potent, enriched S-isomer pyrethroid compound. This insecticide has excellent activity against many pests, including horn flies that are resistant to certain other insecticides. A high loading of piperonyl butoxide synergizes this S-isomer and dramatically reduces the effect of pyrethroid resistance.Controls horn flies, face flies, lice, Gulf Coast ticks and spinose ear ticks. Aids in control of stable flies, black flies, house flies and small horse flies.
- Labeled for use on beef and dairy cattle, including calves and lactating dairy cows.
- Controls horn flies for 3 to 4 months with one tag/head and up to 5 months with two tags/head when used in an insecticide rotation program.
- Controls face flies, lice, Gulf Coast ticks, and spinose ear ticks for 4 to 5 months with two tags/head. Aids in control of face flies with one tag/head.
- May be used in winter for lice control.
