Overview
To kill mosquitoes, chewing lice, Lyme disease-carrying deer ticks, lone star ticks, American dog ticks, brown dog ticks in all life stages, and fleas, apply to kittens ages 8 weeks and up or cats as follows: 1) Take one of the applicator tubes out of the packaging and hold it upright, away from your face. 2) Twist the dispensing tip 1/2 turn clockwise while pushing down to break the tube seal. The dispensing tip should not be removed. 3) Place the dispensing tip between the shoulder blades of the cat's back. Part the cat's hair using the dispensing tip of the tube so that the product may be administered at skin level. Squeeze the applicator and apply the entire contents to the animal's skin in one location. After the treatment has been administered, keep the treated cat apart from other pets for 24 hours. 4) Repeat monthly.
