Venus Liquid Sheep Blowfly Treatment is an Insect growth regulator (IGR) for the prevention of blowfly strike in sheep.
Venus Liquid Sheep Blowfly Treatment protects longwool sheep for up to 14 weeks from strike by blowfly (Lucilia cuprina), including organophosphate resistant strains, when applied by jetting or dipping.
Venus contains the active ingredient cyromazine, an insect growth regulator that breaks the lifecycle of the blowfly before any damage occurs.
Blowfly strike (flystrike) occurs when the eggs of the sheep blowfly (Lucilia cuprina) hatch in moist wool and the maggots feed on the flesh of the live animal. The maggots create painful wounds which, if undetected, can debilitate the animal to the extent that it eventually dies of blood poisoning.
Flystrike is a significant health and welfare risk to Australian sheep and costs AU $280.00 million annually. Flystrike should be actively monitored and managed to prevent productivity losses and ensure good animal welfare. There are five types of flystrike; both body and breech strike are seen as the most prevalent and important ahead of poll and pizzle strike. The risk of these types of flystrike will depend on environmental conditions as well as how susceptible sheep may be.
What are the perfect environmental conditions for flystrike?
The presence of primary species (most commonly the Australian sheep blowfly).
Temperatures must be right (between 1538 degrees).
Recent rain enough to keep suitable sites on the sheep moist for about three days.
There must be suitable sites (wrinkles, urine, faeces) on the sheep to attract flies and sustain larvae.
Wind speeds below 9 kilometres per hour (km/h) as this gives flies the best opportunity to disperse.
Venus Liquid can be applied by;
Jetting
Dipping (Plunge Shower & Constant replenishment)
Dressing
