Timing for Grub Treatment
For effective grub control, administer Vetrimec Plus as soon as possible after the end of heel fly (warble fly) season. Killing Hypoderma lineatum near the esophagus may cause bloat; killing Hypoderma bovis in the vertebral canal may cause paralysis. These reactions can occur with any successful grub treatment. Consult your veterinarian for proper timing.
Cattle treated after grub migration may require re-treatment later in the season with ivermectin to control internal parasites or lice without grub-related risks.
Storage Instructions
- Store at 20°C to 25°C (68°F to 77°F).
- Protect from light.
