Corathon Tags
Corathon® is an insecticide cattle ear tag with FyberTek® for the control of flies and ticks on both beef cattle and non-lactating dairy cattle. Flies are a continuous threat to cattle producers because they can significantly impact the well-being and economic value of the herd. Flies interrupt grazing and can reduce weight gain. Beyond economics, flies impact cattle comfort and health and cause: * Agitation * Itching * Disease transmission * Bunching to avoid flies instead of grazing. These impacts can reduce weight gain and milk production, making fly control ear tags an important part of a target control point fly mitigation and management program.
