WARRIOR™ is a unique 40% organophosphate ear tag which releases a synergized formulation of diazinon and chlorpyrifos from an exclusive Tri-Polymer matrix of non-toxic inert ingredients.  WARRIOR™ combines the high fly killing action of diazinon with the superior lice control properties of chlorpyrifos. This patented* formulation exhibits greater potency than either insecticide used alone and is especially effective against pyrethroid-resistant pests.  WARRIOR™ has a net weight of 15 grams per tag for long-lasting activity.

EFFECTIVENESS...

WARRIOR™ when applied at one tag per animal controls Buffalo Flies for up to 12 weeks and controls cattle lice on beef and dairy cattle.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS:

WARRIORTM Insecticidal Cattle Ear Tags will give effective control of Buffalo fly and Cattle lice if used regularly on all animals in the group. The treatment regime with a periodic rotation program will reduce the potential for insecticide resistance to develop in Buffalo flies

DIRECTIONS FOR USE

DO NOT tag calves less than 3 months of age as ear damage may occur. Remove tags before slaughter. Animal and pest: Cattle including lactating dairy cows. - Buffalo flies (Haematobia irritans exigua), Cattle lice (Damalinia bovis, Linognathus vituli, Haematopinus eurysternus, Solenoptes capillatus) State: All states and territories. Critical Comments: For Buffalo fly control: Apply when fly numbers reach unacceptable levels.

Removal of tags after 3 months will ensure that buffalo fly populations are not exposed to sub-lethal doses which may increase the chance of resistance. Remove tags with tag removal knife. The level & duration of control may be reduced under high fly pressure. The whole herd is to be treated concurrently.

For Cattle lice control: Apply tags in late Autumn or early Winter and remove after 3 months.
