Drastic Deadline

Drastic Deadline

The Ultimate Pour-On Solution for Tick and Fly Control

Drastic Deadline is a world-class, ready-to-use pour-on ectoparasiticide containing Flumethrin (1% m/v). Known for its "knockdown" effect and long-lasting residual action, it is a foundation of parasite management for South African farmers. This highly effective formula is designed to be applied directly along the backline of the animal, where it spreads across the skin to provide full-body protection against ticks, lice, and biting flies.

Whether you are protecting high-value cattle, sheep, or ostriches, Drastic Deadline offers a low-volume, high-impact solution that minimizes the need for high-stress dipping procedures.

🐄 Why Drastic Deadline is the Industry Standard:

• Instant Knockdown: Rapidly paralyses and kills ticks on contact, preventing the transmission of diseases like Heartwater and Gallsickness.

• Weather Resistant: Formulated to adhere to the skin oils of the animal, meaning it remains effective even after rain or heavy dew.

• Broad Species Use: Safe and highly effective for use on Cattle, Sheep, Ostriches, and Game.

• Tsetse Fly Defense: Provides critical protection against Tsetse fly worry on cattle, making it essential for farmers in affected regions.

• Oxpecker Compatible: Specially formulated to be "Oxpecker Friendly," allowing these beneficial birds to continue their natural cleaning without harm.

📋 Key Indications:

• Tick Control: Kills all important tick species on cattle, sheep, ostriches, and game.
