oZetacypermethrin, S-enantiomer
s-cyano (3-phenoxyphenyl) Methyl (±) Cis/trans 3-(2, 2-dichloroethenyl)-2, 2 Dimethylcyclopropane-carboxylate*
n The tags I use Python magnum, Any tick I found on my dogs using them (which were very few) were dead. I never seen any adverse conditions on any of my dogs.
A few years ago we had a heavy tick outbreak here and my mules came up on morning out of the pasture and both of them had wood ticks under their jaw. I bet each one had more then fifty stuck on. I tied a tag on each ones halter and the next day when I checked them they were almost all gone and the ones left were dead. I brushed the off with a curry comb and the rest of the summer neither one had ticks.
Looks like you are doing everything you can to prevent tick borne disease there Bob. Simparica and Bravecto both have faster tick kill rates than NexGard, killing ticks in half the time. I sell all three products here and they are all excellent for flea control. Nobody knows how long it takes for a tick to transmit Ehrlichia , we just know it is much shorter than Lyme disease. That is why I recommend multi modal prevention against these diseases. The tags you mention are a permethrin type compound similar to what you will find in the Seresto collars for tick prevention. Permethrin sprays are also very inexpensive and easy to apply and very effective for repelling ticks.
Keep up the great work!
