No idea but having googled ectofly they do it in 20 litre cans wish everything else came in 2.5-5-10-20’sWhy is it so expensive? Would ectofly not do the same job at less than half the price?

That probably will never happen. Flys all dead again around here with this rubbish weather again.Dont know what happend to the irish that were going to make a copy when patent ran out 2-3 years ago ,
If you were to put click on this week, when would you be looking to get clipping?
Bottle says do not shear for 3 months after applicationIf you were to put click on this week, when would you be looking to get clipping?
Defo notWhy is it so expensive? Would ectofly not do the same job at less than half the price?
its too expensive to use pre shearing , unless leaving for full cover , i usually crutch at turnout , and blow a half dose of crovect copy just over the back of ewes at first worm/ vax early -mid may , just gives a bit of time to get wool off if weather is catchy .Bottle says do not shear for 3 months after application

worry of them getting on their back here , everything is so spread out to keep an eye , i agree though i did one batch of late lambers of mine late last year , and it worked well3 months shearing withdrawal, for some reason.
I'll be applying half rate Clik to my ewes shortly, then not shearing until after weaning, late August/early September (aiming to wean before then though). Never have any bother with fly strike, and they don't need treating after shearing that late.
Ewes a lot better to shear then, and no lambs to shed off, etc. I've been doing that for over a decade and not sure why more don't do the same.
Ffs. My clikzin comes in boxes of 20 litre (4x5litre) but I wouldn’t say it comes as 20 litresThe 20 litre pack size is 4x5l (and a free gun ) on the Bimeda website.
Just rang the rep this morning he going to drop it in tomorrowWhen and for how much? it was £210 when I got some last week and that was in stock stuff when new stock came it was going up again
Thanks.No, it's a very different product with a different mode of action.
Ectofly will only treat the area you apply it to (no spreading) and will last 6 weeks, or 8 if you're lucky. It kills the flies that land on it (& dung beetles, etc) and a short meat withdrawal period.
Clik will spread over the whole body and will protect 16-18 weeks (so the whole season inmost areas, if timed right). It doesn't kill any flies (or ticks), it just stops the blowfly larvae developing to the biting stage. It does have a 40 meat withdrawal period and costs a lot more though.
