Use

Spray the entire body surface of the animal from a distance of 10-20 cm. Spray against the direction of hair growth and ensure that all hair is wet. Comb the hair of long-haired breeds so that the product can penetrate the skin of the animal. For treatment of the head and around the eyes and when treating young or restless animals, spray the product onto the palm of a gloved hand and rub gently into the hair. Allow the product to dry at normal temperature conditions. Do not dry by wiping with a towel. The product contains a coating component that will create a film on the hair, making the hair shiny. Bathing and shampooing of animals is recommended two days before and after treatment with this product. 

Prevent transmission of infection

To prevent the spread of the disease, treat all dogs and cats in the household and also pay attention to their bedding.

Due to the lack of data on specific tolerance and efficacy, the product is not recommended for the treatment of animal species other than dogs and cats. It is important to ensure that the animals do not lick each other after application. Individual ticks may attach. Therefore, in adverse conditions, the transmission of infectious diseases cannot be completely ruled out.
