XP820® Insecticide Tag

XP820 is a unique, slow release ear tag for cattle that is the first ever tag to contain abamectin (avermectins B1a and B1b), a highly active macrocyclic lactone that has never been used before on cattle in the USA. The patented formulation contains a high loading of piperonyl butoxide which synergizes the abamectin for maximum pesticidal action. XP820 is particularlyeffective against horn flies, including strains resistant to synthetic pyrethroid and organophosphate insecticides. XP820 is also effective against ear ticks, American dog ticks, cattle fever ticks (Boophilus species) and lone star ticks. The XP820 tag has a net weight of 0.32 oz (9 g) and a metallic gold color.
