Just looked on the Farmacy website and it looks like every fly product is out of stock!!

They were selling Vetrazine at half price last month due to expiry date of end July.

Bad fly year or hopeless manufacturers??

very bad fly year,we are flat out dipping and everybody is saying the same

Was told by one merchant that they wouldn't get crovect back in stock until October

Errrrr, I asked if they thought the flies would still be here then?

There was a long silence

We have had fly in several lambs that were only shorn a fortnight ago.

I expect even those shredding sheep are getting it !?!

Has anyone tried a product called Ecofly? Any use?

I put clik on my April born lambs in late May and had half a dozen struck yesterday. Managed to get hold of some clikzin today - wanted ectofly but they were out.

9wks ish then, not what it says on the tin,has it been wet with you?,several places we have been this week reckon they have trouble after 9wks

 

[jemski]

No, we are burning up here. I won't be using it again - not at the price it is. Have already done all my ewes with it so will be keeping a close eye on them by the end of August not impressed....

Is this in clean wool? Seems a bit strange given the lack of rain. I cliked all my lambs at about the same time and haven't had any struck yet apart from a couple of daggy backends that had just started by the time they were trimmed. Also cliked a bunch of ewes that haven't been shorn yet and no flystrike in them and they have been in fields by a river and lots of woodland nearby.

Maybe you got some clikzin that had been put in the wrong bottle.

 

[jemski]

All clean lambs dosed at correct or slightly over amount. They have all been struck on their backs.

Ectofly. Aye we used it. It's same as crovect. Worked well for us this far anyway.

Same as crovect. Ok if need a short withdrawal.....otherwise not a patch on dysect.

Worse than dysect as well for giving you the itchy/burnt face......or is that just me?!

 

[spark_28]

Do tick too?

 

[exmoor dave]

Do tick too?

dysect is great for tick. covers ticks for 10-12wks

Your sposed to put it on the sheep not you!

 

[CharcoalWally]

In at our local vets last week for blowfly protection. Had plenty of both Clik and Dysect .

And a chance to blether with the friendly , efficient ladies on reception , and a chance to catch up on the local news.
