INSTRUCTIONS - FLYTAPE
FlyTape is a newly developed and effective product which is currently being patented. The product has been developed to help tackle the problem of catching irritating and disease-carrying flies bothering horses around their wounds, genitals and mares’ udders. FlyTape consists of a transparent film with non-toxic adhesive on both sides and protective paper which should be removed during use.
FlyTape is 54 cm long and 7 cm wide. It can reach around the horse’s legs and you can cut it down to an appropriate size if you need to.
Begin by removing one side of the protective paper so that the adhesive is exposed. Then place the adhesive side of FlyTape against the fur in the desired spot. Next, remove the protective paper on the outer side and FlyTape will be ready to start catching flies. Do not place FlyTape directly over a wound - place it about 2 cm away from it.
After use, you can remove FlyTape easily and painlessly. FlyTape can be disposed of together with regular household waste.
