Shield Insecticidal Pour On

SHIELD aids in the control of synthetic Pyrethroid susceptible nuisance flies, biting insects and Queensland Itch on horses. As a unique "pour-on" for horses, SHIELD not only repels flies longer than sprays, it's also easier to apply.

Simply pour it along the backline as per the directions. The insects will come in contact with Shield as the naturally migrate around the body. The dosage may be divided to target specific areas that are more prone to bites.

SHIELD controls the following biting insects:-

Domestic & Bush Flies - Stable Fly - Biting Midges - Buffalo Fly - Mosquitoes

Active Constituent: 40 g/L Permethrin (cis:trans 80:20)

Indications: Ready-to-use insecticidal pour-on for horses

For the control of Queensland Itch, treatment should start at the beginning of the season by applying once weekly (or more frequently as required – no more than twice weekly).
A few horses, particularly those of the fine-skinned Arab type, may react when treated with SHIELD for the first time.  In these cases, a small patch test is recommended as per the directions.
The efficacy of SHIELD may be influenced by rain and activities such as rugging, brushing or washing.  For best results allow 12-24 hours for SHIELD to dry before exposing your horse to these activities.

The “Spot on” for horses — Easy to apply
Cheaper per application than sprays and wipes
• A 250mL bottle will treat 1875 Kilo’s of bodyweight (approx. 6 x 500Kg horses)
• A 1Litre bottle will treat 7500 Kilo’s of bodyweight (approx 24 x 500Kg horses)

SHIELD is non-flammable, unlike sprays, and therefore won’t sting the horse on application.
