Q: Can it be used on poultry?
3 days ago1 Answer
- A: Howdy neighbor! No, you should not use Merck Ultra Boss Pour-On Insecticide on poultry. According to its official EPA product label, this specific oil-based formula is strictly registered for use on cattle, calves, horses, sheep, and goats. Applying a heavy, ready-to-use livestock "pour-on" to birds is highly dangerous because it can cause severe chemical skin burns, mat their feathers (ruining their natural temperature regulation), and potentially result in fatal toxicity.3 days agoHelpful?
Q: Dosing is 30ml per 100lbs with a max of 30ml (equal to 1 oz). Do you mix or dilute this with some type of liquid to apply because it'll be pretty difficult to get an ounce evenly distributed down the neck and backline of a cow.
