This study investigated the prophylactic action of the chemical combination zeta-cypermethrin and piperonyl butoxide, administered by means of slow-release insecticide-impregnated ear tags, against biting midges (Culicoides spp) attacking sheep and against midges, horn flies (Haematobia irritant), stable flies (Stomoxys calcitrans), and houseflies (Musca domestica) attacking cattle. Treated sheep and cattle were protected 100 percent against blood-feeding midges for two months and there was a clear reduction in the number of midges collected from treated animals. Three days after the ear tags were attached to cattle, the number of horn flies on the cattle was reduced to practically zero and remained at a low level until the end of the trial (day 85). There was also a strong reduction in the numbers of stable flies and houseflies counted.
本研究调查了通过缓释杀虫剂浸渍耳标施用的化学组合氯氰菊酯和增效醚对攻击绵羊的吸血蠓（库蠓属）以及对攻击牛的蠓、角蝇（血蜱蝇）、厩蝇（厩螫蝇）和家蝇（家蝇）的预防作用。经处理的绵羊和牛在两个月内对吸血蠓的防护率达100%，并且从经处理动物身上采集到的蠓数量明显减少。在给牛佩戴耳标三天后，牛身上的角蝇数量减少到几乎为零，并在试验结束（第85天）前一直维持在低水平。厩蝇和家蝇的计数数量也大幅减少。
