Ultrum Tick & Flea Powder

Product Details

Ultrum Powder is manufactured by Kyron Laboratories and registered as an external parasite-control product. It is formulated for direct dusting onto the coat of appropriate animals and for use on the bedding or sleeping areas of dogs, cats, puppies and kittens.

Choose parasite-control products according to the species being treated and use only the amount and method stated on the label. Animals with skin wounds, breathing problems, marked weakness or unusual sensitivity should be assessed by a veterinarian before treatment.

The product can form part of an environmental routine. Bedding may be treated as directed, while sleeping areas should be kept clean. Any additional pesticide or cleaning product used nearby must be animal-appropriate and applied according to its own label.

Active Ingredient

The verified active ingredient is propoxur at 1.5% m/m. The powder is formulated for external parasite control and should be handled in a way that avoids unnecessary airborne dust.

Keep the powder in its original labelled container so the directions, registration details and safety information remain available. Do not transfer it into an unmarked household container or mix it with other insecticides.

When treating more than one animal, check the species and condition of each animal separately. Birds require a much lighter application method than dogs or cats, and the fine powder must not be over-applied.

Directions and Warnings

For dogs, cats, puppies and kittens: Dust the powder liberally onto the animal and work it thoroughly into the coat. The manufacturer also directs users to dust the animal’s bedding and sleeping area.

For birds and poultry: Hold the bird securely by the legs and apply the powder lightly from above. Take particular care not to over-expose birds to fine powder, as excessive dusting may interfere with breathing and can be dangerous.

• Read and follow the complete package label before application.
• Avoid creating excessive airborne dust.
• Keep powder away from eyes, mouth, food and drinking water.
• Do not apply heavily to birds.
• Use the species-specific method on the label.
• Keep the container securely closed when not in use.
• Store away from food, feed, children and unattended animals.
• Seek veterinary advice if an animal reacts unexpectedly.

Parasites can persist in the environment after the animal has been treated. Clean sleeping areas appropriately and repeat treatment only as permitted by the label or advised by a veterinarian. Never increase the quantity or frequency to try to obtain faster results.
