Description
In controlling external parasites on beef cattle, a rancher must use extreme care in selecting the proper insecticide. Follow the directions exactly as they are printed on the label. Do not apply a spray mixture that is too concentrated nor apply too much to each animal. Young calves and sick animals are especially susceptible to overdoses of some insecticide preparations. On the other hand, make sure the spray is mixed at recommended concentration; incomplete control may make it necessary to repeat treatment. Use preparations that are registered and formulated especially for livestock use.
