Title: Rain-fastness of Spot-on
Post by: Foobar on April 13, 2016, 08:32:09 pm

Anyone know how rain-fast Cooper's Spot-On is? (or Pfizer spot on or whatever its called now :) )


Just put some on one of my ewes but it decided to tip down an hour later.  Hoping the wool covering will protect it sufficiently. Serves me right, I knew I should have checked the weather forecast!  Doh!

It is fine the excipients help it stick and get absorbed despite the rain.

 Agree with above , the manufactures  say 2 hrs but this is them playing safe
