SWIFT

A ready-to-use insecticidal pour-on for horses SWIFT aids in the control of synthetic pyrethroid susceptible nuisance flies, biting insects and Queensland Itch on horses.

Product Benefits:

As a unique "pour-on" for horses, SWIFT not only repels flies longer than sprays, it's also easier to apply. Simply pour it along the backline as per the directions on the box.

SWIFT controls the following biting insects:

• Domestic & Bush Flies
• Stable Fly
• Biting Midges
• Buffalo Fly
• Mosquitoes

Directions for Use:

Dose per Bodyweight:

• Up to 100kg: 10ml
• 101 to 200kg: 20ml
• 201 to 300kg: 30ml
• Over 300kg: 40ml

Treatment for nuisance flies should be applied every 6 weeks or as required depending on insect pressure. For the control of Queensland Itch, treatment should start at the beginning of the season by applying once weekly (or more frequently as required). 

Apply the measured dose along the backline, ensuring that the mane & rump are treated. Take care to avoid eye contact. Apply SWIFT during the cooler part of the day, preferably in the shade. Skin reactions may occur if SWIFT is applied during hot weather. 

A few horses, particularly those of the fine-skinned Arab type, may react when treated with SWIFT for the first time. In these cases, a small patch test is recommended to assess the sensitivity of a horse's skin to SWIFT. Apply a small stripe of SWIFT (10 - 15cm long) at the base of the horses's neck and observe the area for 3 days. If no reaction occurs, it is safe to apply SWIFT at the recommended dose rate.

The efficacy of SWIFT may be influenced by rain and activities such as rugging, brushing or washing. For best results allow 12-24 hours for SWIFT to dry before exposing your horse to these activities.
