Seresto kills existing fleas on cats within 24 hours. Reinfesting fleas are killed within 2 hours with protection against further flea infestation lasting eight (8) months. Pre-existing pupae in the environment may continue to emerge for six (6) weeks or longer depending upon the climatic conditions. Seresto aids in control of flea larvae in the cat's surroundings following contact with a Seresto-treated cat.

Ticks already on the cat prior to treatment may not be killed immediately after collar application and may remain attached and visible. At the time of application remove ticks already on the cat. The prevention of infestations with new ticks starts within 48 hours after application of the collar.

Aids in the treatment and control of Sarcoptic mange.

Seresto is water-resistant and remains effective following a shampoo treatment or after exposure to rain or sunlight. Under normal conditions, effectiveness lasts for 8 months. In order to maintain an eight-month duration, cats must not be bathed more than once per month. For cats that get bathed once a month or more, the control duration is reduced to 5 months.

Occasionally slight itching may be observed in animals that are not used to wearing collars in the first few days after fitting. Ensure that the collar is not fitted too tightly. Slight hair loss and mild skin reactions due to the mechanical irritation of the collar may occur at the application site which usually recover within 1 or 2 weeks without the need for collar removal. If you notice any serious effects or other effects not mentioned in this leaflet, please inform your veterinarian.
