A dose volume of 10 ml/100 kg body mass applied at bi-weekly intervals provided excellent control of both tick species on their predilection sites, irrespective of locally and seasonally high tick pressure. The trial results demonstrate clearly that this new concept of tick control can be effectively applied in commercial and traditional cattle husbandry situations.en©ARC - Onderstepoort and Faculty of Veterinary Science, University of Pretoria (original). ©University of Pretoria.
