We all know that fly control is essential for optimal growth and productivity and decreased transmission of diseases such as pinkeye and anaplasmosis. Traditionally, there has only been one feed-through option available for both cattle and horses; however, now there is another option available in a block form, ClariFly® Larvicide!
How is ClariFly different?
ClariFly acts to interrupt the fly life cycle by disrupting the larvae’s normal molting process. The mode of action of ClariFly is specific to insects. ClariFly disrupts the production of a substance called chitin, an essential component of the insect’s exoskeleton. Without a properly formed exoskeleton, the immature fly cannot survive. ClariFly Larvicide prevents the emergence of adult house flies, stable flies, face flies and horn flies from the manure of treated cattle and prevents the emergence of house flies and stable flies from the manure of treated horses.

SWEETLIX has a product to fit any size operation and any production scenario. Additionally, there are no withdrawals. ClariFly may be fed up to slaughter and to lactating dairy cows without withholding the milk during or after treatment. ClariFly is cleared for use in all classes of cattle and horses with no restrictions.
As with other feed-through fly control products, SWEETLIX ClariFly supplements work best as a part of an Integrated Pest Management program using a variety of complimentary control methods. Adult house flies and stable flies can breed in any decaying organic matter, not just manure. Steps should be taken to reduce other sources of decaying organic matter such as tall weeds, wet bedding or spilled feed to limit breeding sites for these flies.
In summary, biting flies can result in substantial costs for both cattle and horse owners. Combat flies with the new, fully fortified SWEETLIX ClariFly Fly Control Blocks and minerals for cattle and horses. Ask for SWEETLIX by name at your local SWEETLIX dealer or call 1-87-SWEETLIX for more information.
