Synergized Power for Potency!

PYthon is a fast-acting, sustained-release ear tag containing a new, synergized S-isomer pyrethroid compound, making it the newest and most technologically advanced insecticidal ear tag registered by the Australian Pesticides & Veterinary Medicines Authority for Buffalo fly, Cattle Biting Lice and Paralysis Tick control.  PYthon has excellent activity against Buffalo flies, including Buffalo flies that are resistant to certain other insecticides.  A high loading of piperonyl butoxide synergizes this S-isomer and dramatically reduces the effect of pyrethroid resistance, making PYthon ideal for rotation with diazinon tags.  PYthon's exclusive Tri-Polymer matrix of non-toxic inert constituents continuously delivers a high ratio of synergist to insecticide for maximum insect-killing action.  PYthon's net weight of 9.5 grams allows it to be used on cattle of all ages.
