SWEETLIX Clarifly Fly Control Block

How is ClariFly different?
ClariFly acts to interrupt the fly life cycle by disrupting the larvae’s normal molting process. The mode of action of ClariFly is specific to insects. ClariFly disrupts the production of a substance called chitin, an essential component of the insect’s exoskeleton. Without a properly formed exoskeleton, the immature fly cannot survive. ClariFly Larvicide prevents the emergence of adult house flies, stable flies, face flies and horn flies from the manure of treated cattle and prevents the emergence of house flies and stable flies from the manure of treated horses.

Feeding
For best results, start feeding SWEETLIX ClariFly supplements early in the spring and continue feeding until the first killing frost. In some areas, these dates will overlap. When daily temperatures reach 65° F for a period of at least two weeks flies become active. Be sure to provide at least one block per 5 to 15 head of cattle or horses. Locate blocks where animals congregate (near watering, loafing or shade areas, etc.). Increase or decrease the number of blocks or change locations if necessary to adjust for proper consumption. Remember that ClariFly will not kill adult flies so you need to place supplements out BEFORE you see flies for best control. If adult flies are already present when introducing SWEETLIX ClariFly supplements, use an approved adulticide for at least one month to eliminate adult fly populations. Additionally, traps and baits may be necessary to control migrating flies.
