feed-through FLY PREVENTIVE for horses

• Solitude IGR prevents the development of houseflies and stable flies in the treated manure from the horse by breaking their lifecycle


• 1/2 ounce scoop per day

• Begin feeding in the spring before flies appear and continue feeding throughout the summer until cold weather stops fly development

Indications: For fly control in and around:

Horses, horse barns, horse stables and paddocks, horse race tracks.

Solitude IGR is a product which, when mixed into a horse’s ration according to the “Directions for Use” given below, will control certain fly species that develop in the horse manure. Solitude IGR is intended for use only in equine operations.

ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS

Do not apply directly to water. Do not contaminate water by disposing of equipment wash water or rinsate.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE

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

IMPORTANT: Read the entire “Directions for Use” before using the product.

Failure to follow directions and precautions on the label may result in poor fly control. DO NOT USE ON HORSES INTENDED FOR SLAUGHTER FOR FOOD. Feed the recommended dosage to each horse separately to make certain full ration is received. This product is to be fed top-dressed on grain or mixed with the horse’s total ration to provide 300 mg (1 scoop) of cyromazine per horse per day or 600 mg (2 scoops) of cyromazine per horse every other day.

Start feeding Solitude IGR early in the spring before flies begin to appear and continue feeding throughout the summer and into the fall until cold weather inhibits fly development.

Solitude IGR prevents the development of houseflies and stable flies in the treated manure from the horse, but is not effective against existing adult flies. The active ingredient, cyromazine, is very insect specific. Cyromazine disrupts the production of chitin in the fly so the larvae (maggots) cannot develop into adults. Once the fly reaches adulthood, cyromazine has no effect on the chitin of the adult fly.

In some cases, supplemental fly control measures may be needed in and around paddocks and stables to control adult houseflies and stable flies, which can breed not only in manure, but in other decaying vegetable matter or silage on premises.

In order to achieve optimum fly control, Solitude IGR should be used in conjunction with other good management and sanitation practices.

Dosage and Administration for Control of Houseflies and Stable Flies

Begin feeding in the spring before flies begin to appear and continue feeding throughout the summer and into the fall until cold weather inhibits fly development.

Mixing Solitude IGR:

Daily Dosage: Using 1/2 oz. scoop supplied with the product, mix one (1) scoop of Solitude IGR in the horse’s ration every day.

Alternate Day Dosage: Using 1/2 oz. scoop supplied with the product, mix two (2) scoops of Solitude IGR in the horse’s ration every other day.

Solitude IGR will provide a high degree of fly control and will give the best results when integrated with a well-managed fly control program which includes determining the degree of fly control desired, minimizing fly breeding sites, monitoring adult fly populations in and around the operation; and frequent examinations of manure for maggot activity. To maximize the effectiveness of Solitude IGR, horses must be individually fed with no group or trough feeding.

Additional Information

Fly control in horse operations should include appropriate sanitary and management practices to reduce the number and size of fly breeding sites. A successful sanitary and management program may allow less than constant use of insecticides. This, in turn, should prolong the effective life of such agents.

Controlling Fly Breeding Sites: Certain conditions around horse operations encourage flies and should be brought under control as an aid to fly control. These include:

1. Cleaning up feed and manure spills, especially if wet.

2. Reducing feed spills in the wet areas.

3. Minimize untreated breeding sites by removing collected manure prior to treating with Solitude IGR.

4. Reducing moisture in manure, hay and/or straw around holding areas.

5. Reducing the amount of excess hay leftover from pasture feeding.

6. Repairing water leaks that cause wet manure.

7. Cleaning out weed-choked water drainage ditches.

8. Minimizing sources from other fly-infested animal operations in close proximity.

Determining the Threshold of Fly Tolerance: Fly pressure can vary depending upon farm location, season of the year, and emphasis on sanitation. The frequency of manure removal and proximity of the farm to neighbors or residential areas will greatly influence the expected degree of fly control. Each farm must determine the level of fly control required and follow an appropriate control program.

TETANUS TOXOID-CONCENTRATED

Colorado Serum

Adjuvanted

GENERAL INFORMATION: This product has been shown to be effective for the vaccination of healthy horses, cattle, sheep, goats, and swine against tetanus. This product was licensed prior to the requirement to establish a minimum age for use. The duration of immunity is unknown. For more information regarding efficacy and safety data, see productdata.aphis.usda.gov.

Safety in pregnant animals is unknown.

Tetanus Toxoid is prepared by detoxifying tetanus toxin in such a manner as to allow the antigenic properties to remain intact. Product is purified, concentrated and adjuvanted to provide a low dose effective immunizing agent.

Each serial is tested for purity, safety, and potency in accordance with USDA requirements.

Tetanus is caused by a neurotoxin produced by growth of Clostridium tetani, an anaerobic (lives without air) micro-organism, in necrotic tissue. Affected animals become stiff, have difficulty swallowing, and have an increased pulse rate. Breathing is labored. Spasmodic contractions of the muscular system occur, such as contracting muscles of the jaw.

Spasmodic contractions of the muscular system occur, such as contracting muscles of the jaw. Thus, the term “lockjaw” is often used. Legs and tail are often stiff with abdominal muscles contracted. Tetanus stricken animals may be unusually sensitive to light and heat. Temperature of the animal generally remains normal, elevating only shortly before death.

Protective antibody levels usually occur about two weeks after the second injection of the primary immunization series. In contrast, administration of Tetanus Antitoxin is recommended for immediate, emergency, passive treatment of exposed animals with unknown vaccination history or with signs of tetanus infection.

DIRECTIONS: Do not vaccinate within 21 days before slaughter. Store at 2-8° C. Do not freeze. Do not mix with other products. Shake well before use. Use entire contents when first opened.

PRECAUTIONS: A transitory local reaction may occur at injection site. Anaphylactoid reaction may occur following administration of products of this nature. If noted, administer adrenalin or equivalent. In case of human exposure, consult a physician.

DOSAGE & ADMINISTRATION: For primary immunization, two doses should be administered subcutaneously or intramuscularly approximately 30 days apart. Use intramuscularly for horses as local reactions are more likely to occur if injected subcutaneously.

Horses: 1 ml IM

Cattle: 1 ml SC or IM

Sheep, Goats, Swine: 0.5 ml SC or IM

Historically, annual single dose revaccination has been recommended. Contact veterinarian for advice.

OTHER INFORMATION: Contains thimerosal and formalin as preservatives. Tetanus Toxoid Concentrate is available in single dose size packaged 10 vials to the carton, and in 10 dose vials.
