Feeding Directions
Feed this product to cattle only. When used as directed, this tub will provide sufficient S-methoprene
insect growth regulator to prevent the emergence of adult horn flies from manure of treated cattle. Existing adult horn flies will not be affected. Start feeding before horn flies appear and continue use until cold weather marks the end of the horn fly season. Allow free choice to cattle. Cattle should consume 34 mg of S-Methoprene per 100 lbs. of cattle body weight per month to achieve horn fly control. This is equivalent to an average of 1.143 ounces (0.0714 pounds) of this tub per 100 lbs. of cattle body weight per day, which is equivalent to 16 ounces (1.0 pound) per day for a 1,400 pound cow. To feed this tub: Remove the protective sheet and score several times with a knife to encourage initial consumption. This product contains added copper. Do not feed to cattle in close proximity to sheep or other species that have a low tolerance to supplemental copper.

This product is to be fed only to the animal species as directed on this label. Follow these management practices:
1. Assure cattle are not starved for nutrients prior to feeding RangeLand® 30-13 Tub with Altosid®.
2. The product contains added copper. Do not feed to sheep or other species that have low tolerance to supplemental copper.
3. Remove all other self-limiting nutritional supplements while cattle are consuming this product.

7. If intake of RangeLand® 30-13 Tub with Altosid® is below 1.143 ounces per 100 lbs. of animal body weight per day, increase the number of feeding locations and/or change location(s) to areas more frequented by cattle.
8. If intake of RangeLand® 30-13 Tub with Altosid® is above 1.143 ounces per 100 lbs. of body weight per day, reduce the number of feeding locations and/or change location(s) to areas less frequented by cattle.

KEY POINTS:
▪ When RangeLand® 30-13 Tub with Altosid® is consumed and passed into the manure, it stops adult horn fly development at the pupal stage and breaks the horn fly life cycle.
▪ RangeLand® 30-13 Tub with Altosid® is a weather-proof delivery system resistant to wind and rain, and its low moisture cooked molasses product technology supports the maintenance of consistent intakes and nutrient delivery.
