Easier-to-use— Simply hang the 10 foot RUB,
pour on about four gallons of insecticide solution
and let the RUB do the rest Its that easy l And
many users report treating the Cow Life Cattle
RUB less than once a month
More Effective Just one pass under the
rub gives animals the insecticide protection they
need It really takes the work out of fly and lice con
trol Millions of cattle have proven how simple it is
More Economical it costs less to start w tn
and it s made of DuPont Orion and acrylic
so i* s virtually rot proof l Plus it saves labor insect
icide and an awful lot of trouble
And if face flies are a problem to you .
The FACE FLYPS offer effective face fly control
These special DuPont Orion "FLYPS ’ wick
insecticide solution directly from the RUB and
insure that the insecticide is where it is needed for
effective face fly control on the animal s face
Each pack contains 22 FLYPS which require
aOout 3 minutes to attach to the RUB Order one
