Don’t get burnt this summer!

With spore counts rising and the risk of facial eczema growing it’s important to consider purchasing your Faceguard now!

Faceguard is an elemental zinc bolus that provides up to 6 weeks protection from facial eczema in a single treatment. A further half dose delivered after 6 weeks will give you an additional 4-week cover. 10 weeks total coverage!!

There is a complete range that includes flexible treatment options for cattle ranging from 90-250kg and 251-660kg. This means the range allows treatment of calves of 90kg right up to adult cattle and bulls of 660kg.

Flexibility- Individual animal dosing is much more reliable than any trough/pasture treatment. Easy convenient dosing for all Cattle sizes from 90 – 660kgs

Longevity – A single application lasts up to 6 weeks with the option of topping up to give additional cover in a longer season.

Durability – Try as you must, but the boluses will not break when dropped!

REMEMBER - If you are bolusing on a hot sunny day leave the boluses in their polystyrene packaging with lids on as direct sunlight can soften them.

Please be careful whenever bolusing animals, whether it is zinc, trace mins, magnesium or Rumensin – we see throat injuries every year which could be avoided. Remember, don’t force it! Take your time and take breaks, it is not a fun job we know.

If you would like a hand treating your animals consider booking one of our technicians, we are more than happy to help!
