Butox for fleas in the apartment instructions. Butox – high efficiency at an affordable price

Butox is a light yellow liquid that contains the main substance deltamethrin. This drug, penetrating the mucous membranes of fleas, leads to paralysis of the nervous system, as a result of which the insect simply dies from an attack of suffocation. If Butox gets into the animal’s mucous membranes in small quantities, this will not happen. However, large dosages of Butox can cause vomiting, so you must follow the instructions without deviation.

The presented product helps get rid of fleas, ticks of certain types that often land on dogs, as well as midges. The drug Butox acts on nervous system, by blocking neuromuscular transmission. As soon as fleas consume the drug or smell the odor, the muscles of their body become paralyzed, losing the ability to breathe - as a result, the insects die.

Attention! Although effective when used at home to eliminate fleas, this drug is dangerous for fish and bees. Therefore, the application should be carried out carefully - first, you should remove the aquarium from the apartment, and in a private house, avoid diluting the oil liquid near the apiary.

PHARMACOLOGICAL PROPERTIES

DOSES AND METHOD OF APPLICATION

Butox 50 is used only for external treatment of animals and premises. Immediately before use, prepare an aqueous working emulsion of the drug. Animals are treated by spraying or bathing.

Buying animals

Before carrying out mass treatments, each batch of Butox 50 is preliminarily tested for small group animals (10-15 heads) of varying fatness and age, which are monitored for 2-3 days. If there are no complications, treatment of the entire livestock of animals begins.

After cleaning the bathtub for bathing, make a preliminary mixture of the required amount of Butox 50 (in accordance with the dosage for bathing). Distribute the solution throughout the entire container, then stir for 10 minutes. To get a perfect emulsion, you first need to pass 20 animal stirrers through the container. After the animals have removed 10% of the total volume of working fluid from the bath, it is replenished to the original level. In this case, 0.9 liters of Butox 50 is added to each ton of added water. Make sure that the first 20 animals wash again during the bathing course. Before treatment, animals should not be tired and should not be thirsty. Carry out treatment in a very hot weather Not recommended. After treating 2.5-3 thousand sheep, the acaricidal liquid is poured into settling wells, preventing it from entering water bodies or rivers. The bath is thoroughly cleaned of dirt and washed with water, which is also drained into settling wells.

Animal spraying

Before using Butox 50, it is necessary to make a preliminary mixture in 1 liter of water, add it to the required amount of water in the spray tank and mix thoroughly. During each course of treatment, a minimum of 3 liters of diluted product must be used per animal. The sequence of spraying the animal is: ears, head, body, tail, area around the anus, limbs.

Dosage

Amount of Butox 50 per 100 liters of water

Amount of Butox 50 per 1000 liters of water

	Bathing treatment		Treatment spraying
	Preventative treatment	Replenishment
Ixodid ticks
Scabies mites Preventative treatment (1 treatment) Therapeutic treatment (2 treatments with an interval of 8 - 10 days)
Flies and other insects

The required amount of Butox 50 emulsion concentrate is calculated using the following formula:

(A x B) / C = X, where: X is the amount of the original 5% emulsion concentrate in ml required to prepare 1 liter of working emulsion; A is the concentration of the working emulsion; B is the required volume of working emulsion (ml); C is the percentage of active substance in the drug.

You need to prepare 1 liter of 0.003% Butox 50 emulsion. Substituting the values ​​in the formula, we get:

X=0.003x1000/5=0.6 ml

Therefore, to prepare 1 liter of 0.003% emulsion, you need to take 0.6 ml of 5% Butox 50; for 10 l - 6 ml, for 100 l - 60 ml, etc.

A weighed portion of the drug is emulsified in a small volume of water (1:4), then gradually poured into a bath or desalination container and water is added to the required volume.
The temperature of the working emulsion should be within 15-20 °C.

To successfully treat scabies, it is necessary to carry out two courses with a break of ten days. To prevent the disease, it is recommended to take one course every six months. If lice are present, one course of treatment is usually required. If mites are present, repeat the course of treatment each time, depending on the degree of infestation. To kill flies, a single application of Butox 50 is required, which usually lasts for a period of 6-8 weeks.

For the treatment of psoroptosis in cattle, an aqueous emulsion is used at a concentration of 0.005%; for therapeutic purposes, it is treated by spraying twice with an interval of 7-10 days; for prophylactic purposes, once. To combat single-host ixodid ticks, use a solution at a concentration of 0.0025%; if there are two or three host ticks on animals, it is recommended to treat with a concentration of 0.00375%.

A 0.0025% aqueous emulsion is used against flies by spraying. A 0.00125% aqueous emulsion is used against lice. Animals are sprayed against ixodid ticks during their active season once every 6-7 days before being put on pasture or after day rest; for entomosis - according to indications. When treating animals against sarcoptic and ixodid ticks, as well as insects, the consumption rate of the working emulsion is 2-3 liters per animal. To treat sheep against psoroptosis by bathing in a bath, a 0.003% aqueous emulsion is used. For preventive purposes, animals are treated once, for therapeutic purposes - twice with an interval of 7-10 days.

Active ingredient of the drug Butox

The active principle of Butox for fleas is deltamethrin, a pyrethroid class insecticide. The substance is odorless and highly soluble in water when in an emulsified state (microscopic droplets of liquid dispersed in another liquid medium). Therefore, the drug Butox is available in the form of an emulsion.

It has an intestinal and contact effect against insects i.e. penetrates into their body with food and through the integument of the body. Like all pyrethroids, deltamethrin disrupts the normal functioning of the nervous system by disrupting the transmission of nerve impulses between cells. Insects die from neuromuscular paralysis, which is accompanied by muscle spasms, convulsions, and disorientation.

Important! Preparations based on deltamethrin belong to hazard class III. Therefore, the use of Butox in the doses recommended in the instructions does not cause toxic effects and does not accumulate in internal organs and fabrics.
