Description

Prevents adult horn fly emergence from manure of treated cattle. Solid feed supplement containing S-Methoprene insect growth regulator for continuous feeding to cattle through the horn fly season. Approved for all classes of beef and dairy cattle. Due to high levels of copper do not feed to sheep or goats. Altosid is ingested with the cattle's mineral or feed. As they graze,cattle disperse the igr via their manure. Female flies leave the animal for a few seconds to lay eggs in fresh manure less than 5 minutes old. In 1 to 2 days, eggs hatch into larvae. After 3 to 5 days, the larvae molt into pupae. Altosid breaks the life cycle here, preventing pupae from molting into adults. Highly palatable - molasses based. Supplements need to be consumed in adequate amounts to correct mineral deficiencies. Weatherproof composition. Tub form resists waste of mineral from wind and rain. No-special feeder required. Since product is contained in a disposable poly- tub no equipment needed to feed product. Tubs easily re-located. Self-limiting. Self-feeding.

The good and the bad
Date:July 2, 2011
The product works well. The cattle consume it and require more than one tub closely spaced, as they move together. The tub is not as good. As it emptied, the blue plastic of each tub shattered into 60+ pieces which required time to pick up by hand.

Altosid mineral tub
Date:July 11, 2010
Just started using this product and I am amazed! The horn fly population has dropped at least 90%. You must use other fly control methods also but this stuff really controls the horn flies.
