NEOGEN Launches Prozap Protectus Pour-On Insecticide - IGR

LEXINGTON, Ky. — NEOGEN Corp. announced that it has added a new product to its Prozap insect control line.

Prozap Protectus Pour-On Insecticide – IGR is a ready-to-use triple-active formula for use on beef cattle and calves that kills chewing and sucking lice, horn flies, stable flies, horse and deer flies. The product is formulated with a unique combination of active ingredients, including an insect growth regulator (IGR), adulticide and a synergist, which provides cattle with relief from infestations and kills louse eggs before they hatch, providing season-long control of lice in one application.

The formula, which contains 3% diflubenzuron, 2.5% piperonyl butoxide and .5% lambda-cyhalothrin, is applied along the back of the animal being treated utilizing a graduated applicator gun.

"We are incredibly excited to offer this new, premium insect control product to producers," said Elizabeth Wonsowski, NEOGEN's ruminant product marketing manager. "The formulation of the new Prozap Protectus Pour-On product provides beef cattle producers with a unique option compared to existing products currently on the market and will help minimize cattle handling, time and labor costs associated with treatment."
