Directions for Use
- Shake well before use. Protect from extremes of heat and cold.
- Premixing (Critical Step): Add a measured volume of concentrate to double that volume of water while stirring to produce a creamy emulsion.
- Add this premix to the bulk of the water in the dip tank or spray race sump.
- Agitate to achieve thorough mixing of the dip wash.
- For hand spraying, thoroughly wet the animal by spraying from below upwards so that the hair is lifted by the spray. Concentrate on the ears, under the tail and in the brush of the tail.
- It is best to dip calves under three months of age separately from the main herd.
Special Management Guidelines
- Calves: Dip calves under 3 months separately from the adult herd. Ideally treat calves after the main group.
- Spray Race Best Practice: Do not carry dip wash over from one spraying to the next. Only make sufficient wash for each spraying (±3L per head plus the amount for the pump system).
- Dual Chemistry Advantage: The Cymiazol component causes ticks to detach from the host, while Cypermethrin provides rapid knockdown and residual kill. This combination reduces the risk of resistance development.
- Rotation Strategy: Alphacyp Dip can be rotated with Alphatraz 250 (amitraz-based) to manage acaricide resistance in tick populations.
- Do not mix Alphacyp Dip with any other dip product.
Tick-Borne Disease Immunity
Effective dipping may in time give rise to very low tick infestations. This could adversely affect immunity to tick-borne diseases, especially in young stock. It is therefore advisable that animals be immunised against tick-borne diseases. If this is not possible, young stock under 4 weeks should not be dipped unless tick infestation is excessive.
