Important: Read the entire label, including the NOTICE OF WARRANTY provision, before using.

Directions For Use

It is a violation of Federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling.

Resistance-management Recommendations. For resistance management, PYthon II Livestock Insecticide Dust contains a Group 3A/Zeta-cypermethrin insecticide. Any insect population may contain individuals naturally resistant to PYthon II Livestock Insecticide Dust and other Group 3A insecticides. The resistant individuals may dominate the insect population if this group of insecticides are used repeatedly in the same herds. Appropriate resistance management strategies should be followed. Monitor after application for unexpected target pest survival. If the level of survival suggests the presence of resistance, consult with your local university specialist or certified pest control advisor.

For Outdoor Use Only

For Beef and Dairy Cattle, Sheep, Goats and Horses: Can be applied by dust bag, shaker can, dusting glove and mechanical dust applicator. Do not use concurrently with insecticide ear tags containing zeta-cypermethrin or cypermethrin. Do not apply with power duster equipment. Do not enter or allow others to enter until dusts have settled.

Self-Treating Dust Bag Forced-Use - Horn flies, lice and face flies: Place dust bag in a daily forced use situation. Do not allow free choice use of dust bag. Place contents of package in any commercially available dust bag; suspend bag in gateways or lanes through which the animals must pass daily for water, feed, or minerals. For dairy cows, bags may be suspended in the exit through which the cows leave the milking barn. The bags should hang four (4) to six (6) inches below the backline of the cattle. For reduction of face flies, bags must be located so animals will be forced to use them daily and hung at a height so that the face is dusted.

Horn flies, lice, face flies, stable flies, ticks and keds (direct application): Apply up to 2 oz. (4 tablespoons) of dust per animal evenly into the hair over the head, ears, neck, shoulders, back, and tailhead. For spinose ear ticks, apply approximately 1/3 ounce (2/3 tablespoon) inside each ear. For stable flies, apply also to legs. For all applications, repeat as necessary but not more often than once in 3 days.

Do not make applications during rain. Avoid making applications when rainfall is expected before the product has sufficient time to dry (minimum 4 hours).

Rainfall within 24 hours after application may cause unintended runoff of pesticide application.
