Bayticol Dip and Spray – Practical Tick Control for Working Animals
Bayticol Dip and Spray is a flumethrin-based tickicide used for the control of ticks and fleas and selected external parasites on cattle, horses, dogs, ostriches and poultry of all ages.
It is formulated for use in real farm environments where predictable performance, correct dilution and routine application matter more than unnecessary complexity.
This product may be applied as a dip or spray and is designed to integrate easily into established livestock management systems. When used correctly and consistently, Bayticol contributes to long-term tick population reduction, making control programmes easier to maintain over time.
- Controls ticks on cattle, horses, dogs, ostriches and chickens of all ages
- Sterilises female ticks, helping reduce reinfestation pressure
- Kills ticks on contact and provides residual protection
- Kills stable flies and reduces fly-related irritation
- Reduces screw-worm strikes on tick-bite wounds (does not kill screw worm maggots)
- Non-stripping formulation suitable for repeated use
- Protects animals against tick-infested diseases
- Stable formulation suitable for routine dipping and spraying
With regular use, overall tick challenge is reduced, making it possible to extend dipping intervals over time as population pressure declines.
Diseases & Parasite Control
Bayticol Dip and Spray does not act as a vaccine and does not treat existing disease.
Its role is to control external parasites that transmit or contribute to serious livestock diseases.
By reducing tick, lice and mite populations, Bayticol helps lower the risk of parasite-borne illness and secondary infections associated with skin damage and blood loss.
Parasites Controlled
- Ticks
- Lice
- Mites
- Fleas (species-dependent)
Tick-Borne Diseases Indirectly Prevented
- Redwater (Babesiosis)
- Anaplasmosis (Gall sickness)
- Heartwater
- Theileriosis (including East Coast fever)
- Tick-bite fever–related infections
Effective tick control reduces transmission pressure and lowers the likelihood of outbreaks in susceptible herds.
Conditions Linked to Lice and Mites
- Mange
- Lice infestations causing anaemia and poor condition
- Skin irritation and wounds that may lead to secondary bacterial infections
Bayticol forms part of an integrated parasite control programme and should be rotated with alternative actives to reduce resistance risk.
Application & Mixing
Bayticol Dip and Spray is supplied as a concentrated solution and must be mixed with water before use.
Application method depends on the animal species being treated and the equipment available.
The product may be applied as a plunge dip, spray race or hand spray. Correct mixing, thorough wetting and adherence to recommended intervals are essential for effective control.
General Directions for Use
Dip or spray animals at regular intervals according to the level of tick challenge.
Ensure thorough wetting of the entire animal to allow effective contact with ticks.
Add the required amount of Bayticol to a small quantity of water in a bucket and mix well.
Add this mixture to the water in the plunge dip or spray race and agitate thoroughly before commencing treatment.
Consistent concentration must be maintained throughout dipping or spraying operations.
Always follow label directions for replenishment and interval management.
Species Coverage
Bayticol Dip and Spray is suitable for use across multiple animal species, making it a versatile option for mixed farming operations.
- Cattle: Controls susceptible cattle tick species and assists in reducing tick-borne disease risk
- Horses: Provides tick control as part of routine external parasite management
- Dogs: Controls brown dog tick and selected tick species when applied as a wash
- Poultry: Controls northern fowl mite infestation
- Ostriches: Controls feather mite infestation and ticks
Because the formulation is non-stripping, it is suitable for repeated applications without compromising coat condition when used according to instructions.
Important Information
Bayticol is effective against sensitive strains of ticks. As with all tickicides, resistance may develop over time if products are not used responsibly.
If a reduced level of control is observed, resistance testing is recommended.
Strategic use, correct intervals and proper dilution help preserve long-term efficacy.
Always ensure animals are healthy and fit for treatment before dipping or spraying.
Avoid use on animals that are severely stressed, sick or exhausted.
Store product in its original container, tightly closed, and away from food, feed and unauthorised access. Dispose of used dip wash responsibly and in accordance with environmental guidelines.
Frequently Asked Questions
What animals can Bayticol Dip and Spray be used on?
Bayticol Dip and Spray can be used on cattle, horses, dogs, ostriches and chickens of all ages when applied according to label directions.
Can Bayticol be used as both a dip and a spray?
Yes. Bayticol may be applied as a plunge dip, spray race or hand spray, depending on available equipment and management practices.
Does Bayticol kill screw worm maggots?
No. Bayticol reduces screw-worm strikes on tick-bite wounds but does not kill screw worm maggots.
How does regular use affect tick populations?
With consistent and correct use, overall tick populations are reduced.
What pack sizes are available?
Bayticol Dip and Spray is available in 1 litre and 5 litre pack sizes.
Can Bayticol Dip and Spray be used on cats, and why not?
No. Bayticol Dip and Spray is not labelled or recommended for use on cats.
Cats are biologically more sensitive to many ectoparasiticides used in livestock and dog products.
Cats lack certain liver enzymes needed to safely break down these active ingredients.
In addition, cats groom themselves frequently, which increases the risk of ingesting the product.
This can lead to adverse reactions if products not specifically approved for cats are used.
Only parasite control products that are clearly labelled and approved for cats should be used.
For example, cat-specific spot-on treatments such as Bravecto Plus for Cats are formulated specifically for feline safety and parasite control.
