Spray-on flystrike prevention

Agriculture Primefact
Primefact Number: 844    Edition: First edition    Released/reviewed: Sep 2009

Spray-on products are easier and more convenient alternatives to hand jetting.

These products are usually applied undiluted along the backline of the sheep but in some situations additional bands are sprayed around the breech area.

The principal advantage of the spray-on products is their ease of application as no additional water is required.

This is a particular advantage in the drier and more isolated areas where large volumes of water may have to be carted long distances for wet applications.

These products may be taken to the sheep.
