treatment:

Strategic control:

In places where the epidemiology of ticks is well known,  ACATAK pour on  5 liters is the ideal product for the strategic control of this parasite.
In these cases, the application of ACATAK Pour-On 5 liters a few weeks before the start of seasonal infestations prevents the emergence of subsequent infestation peaks responsible for the high rates of parasitism at the beginning of the season.
When strategic treatment is correctly used, it is possible to keep animals free of ticks with just one or two treatments.
Strategic treatment requires that all animals in the pasture be treated and that they always remain in the same pasture.

Prophylactic treatment:
This consists of treating animals free of nymphs and adults.
In this case, the development of infestation is not observed as long as the blood concentration of the drug remains above the minimum effective concentration.
This period can last between 8 and 12 weeks after treatment. It is recommended to carry out strategic treatment before the start of the tick season.

Curative treatment: 
Naturally infested cattle present all stages of the tick.
Treatment with ACATAK Pour-On results in the death of the parasites during the phase changes.
ACATAK Pour-On is not an adulticide.

When using ACATAK Pour-On  as a curative treatment, it is important to take into account the degree of infestation. Animals that are parasitized will be free of adult forms approximately 15 days after treatment. If the infestation is too high, it is recommended to proceed with treatment with ACATAK Pour-On plus adulticide.
 
Apply ACATAK Pour-On as soon as the animals are dry or up to 21 days after bathing, depending on the performance of the adulticide used.
