After a prolonged absence from the market, broad spectrum cattle parasite treatment, Dectomax Pour On is now back in stock and available for UK farmers to purchase.
Dectomax PO solution controls gastrointestinal roundworms, lungworms, eyeworms, warbles, sucking and biting lice, as well as mange mites and hornflies.
Matt Colston, Elanco technical consultant, says Dectomax can be used strategically around housing and while stock are at pasture to manage parasite burdens, improve productivity and drive growth rates in youngstock.
“With stock across the country being housed this autumn, the relaunch of Dectomax comes at the ideal time to manage ectoparasites in all cattle, as well as treat for worms in youngstock,” he adds.
“The product comes in a ready-to-use solution, is easy to apply with an applicator gun while cattle are in a race or crush, and can be administered up to five weeks before housing.”
Mr Colston stresses that as with any parasite control, it should be administered according to weight to avoid under- or over-dosing and to help prevent resistance development.
