If flies are about to drive your cattle crazy,
then you better see us fast for
ORTHO DIBROM
1%
If you’re sick and tired of fooling around with
weak, half-hearted fly sprays, then you’re ready
for DIBROM. Minutes after you spray, every fly
that’s been hit will be dead or dying. When DI
BROM hits ’em, they stay hit. Even if they’] i re
sistant to other sprays.
DIBROM is registered to spray over and around
cattle. In fact, Dibrom in emulsified form is even
safe to spray on food crops, up to four da; s of
harvest.
It’s easy to use, comes to
you ready-mixed and gives
you real economy. Sure, it
costs a little more than
your pyrethnn sprays, but
you’ll find that it gives a
lot better kill. So when all
is said and done you wind
up getting back a lot more
of the money that flies
have been costing you in
reduced milk and meat
production.
Come in and see us
we’ll be glad to show you
how to go after flies like
you mean it . . . .>. with
