Presentation

A turquoise shampoo with lemon grass odour containing Piperonyl Butoxide (100%) 0.08% v/v added as Piperonyl Butoxide BP (Vet) and Pyrethrum Extract BP (Vet) 0.04% w/v.

Uses

An insecticidal shampoo for killing and repelling flies and for the treatment of lice infestations in horses.

Dosage and administration

Thoroughly saturate the coat with one part of the shampoo in ten parts of warm water, then pour the shampoo as required over the back of the animal. Rub this into a good lather adding more water as necessary. When clean, rinse thoroughly and dry. Take care to prevent the shampoo from entering the eyes of coming into contact with mucous membranes. This can be done by smearing petroleum jelly around these areas.

In case of lice infestation

Use at least 1 litre of shampoo per horse and ensure that all parts of the body are shampooed. Leave in contact for at least 10 minutes before rinsing off. Repeat 10–14 days later. To help prevent reinfestation, the horse's stable, blankets and grooming equipment etc should also be treated with a suitable insecticide.
