Crovect® now provides ten weeks cover against ticks
A product used to treat sheep infested with ticks has had its status upgraded, meaning one treatment will now treat ticks for up to 10 weeks.Crovect®, which is produced by Novartis Animal Health, also works in the treatment and control of headflies, the treatment of biting lice, and the prevention and treatment of blowfly strike in sheep. With the extended claim, Crovect® is now a good choice for long lasting tick treatment with the shortest meat withhold period available; this will prove useful for farmers taking lambs to market at this time of year.
