What is 8:8
Mineral PLUS IGR? |
|
The most convenient way to control horn flies
in beef and dairy cattle is to supplement with PF tubs
containing IGR Feed-Thru.
IGR
is an insect growth regulator that passes through the animal and into
the manure, where horn flies lay their eggs. It breaks the
life cycle by preventing horn fly pupae from developing into
biting adult flies.
It
eliminates the expense, labor, and stress on
your cattle associated with sprays, dusts, ear tags and pour on
products. There's no need to round up or handle
cattle because the animals spread the horn fly control as they
graze.
Left untreated, a few horn flies can quickly explode to
populations of 1,000 to 4,000 flies or more per animal.
Horn flies emerge in the spring when average daily temperatures
reach 65 degrees for a period of two weeks.

FEEDING & MANAGEMENT INSTRUCTIONS
When used as directed, 8:8 Mineral Tub Plus
IGR will provide sufficient (S)-Methoprene insect
growth regulator to prevent the emergence of adult horn flies from
manure of treated cattle. Existing adult horn flies will not
be affected. Start feeding before horn flies appear and
continue use until cold weather marks the end of the horn fly
season. Allow free choice to cattle. Cattle should
consume an average of 0.4 ounces of 8:8 Mineral Tub Plus
IGR per 100 lbs. of animal body weight per day.
*Assure cattle are not starved for nutrients prior to feeding 8:8
Mineral Tub Plus
IGR.
*Offer cattle one 8:8 Mineral Tub Plus
IGR for every 15 to 25 head of cattle.
*Remove all other self limiting nutritional supplements.
*Locate 8:8 Mineral Tub Plus IGR where cattle congregate (watering
/
shade areas).
*Replenish 8:8 Mineral Tub Plus IGR on a regular basis as needed.
*If intake of 8:8 Mineral Tub Plus IGR
Tub is above or below 0.4 ounces per 100 pounds animal body
weight per day, decrease or increase the number of feeding
locations and/or change location's) to areas more frequented by
cattle.
Introduction of this product after adult horn fly infestation is
established will require treatment of cattle with adulticides if
elimination of the adult fly population is desired.
FLY CONTROL FACTS:
|
*
The horn fly is one of the most important and economically
damaging pest of range cattle. In the United States
they cost cattle producers approximately $876 million every
year.
*
Adult flies migrate from other herds. IGR
feed thru does not kill adult flies.
* IGR
unique ingredient, Methoprene, even controls horn flies
resistant to the organophosphates and parathyroid commonly
used in conventional horn fly control products.
*
Scientists estimate that an economical, effective program
keeps the fly population below 200 flies per animal.
*IGR prevents the flies from successfully
multiplying, breaking the life cycle. |
