Below are some recent questions we've received regarding Bimeda Ectofly Pour-On for Sheep, including answers from our team.
Huw
How long does it protect the sheep for after application
Ectofly typically provides up to 4 weeks of protection after application, which is effective against a range of external parasites, especially flies (like the blowfly).
Emily
When can I shear after applying?
The datasheet for this product states 'Sheep may be treated off-shears or at any time during the year.' It is therefore advised to shear before use if you need to and not recommended to treat and then shear soon afterwards as the medication is stored in the fleece and on the skin. There is no specific data on how soon after you can shear so it is advised to wait the full treatment period before shearing, ie 4 weeks for head flies and 6 to 8 weeks for blow fly.

Does it only protect where it covers What is dosage ?
Hi Jill,
Apply as a fan-spray to the surface of the fleece on the back and hindquarters of the sheep using the Pour-On Gun fitted with the fan-spray nozzle. Half the dose should be applied to the shoulders, back and flanks, and half to the rump. The distance between the nozzle and the fleece should be approximately 20 cm. Each dose will require 2 or 3 sweeps to apply. THE PRODUCT WILL PREVENT BLOWFLY STRIKE ONLY ON AREAS COVERED BY SPRAY. One application will give 6-8 weeks protection. Re-treat as required.
Dosage:
Bodyweight (up to 25kg, but no less than 12.5kg) - 20ml
Bodyweight (25-40kg) - 30ml
Bodyweight (over 40kg) - 40ml
Hope this helps!
