The 100ml bottle contains:
• Approximately 3 to 6 treatments for a dog weighing 5 kg, depending on hair length;
• Approximately 8 treatments for a short haired cat weighing 4 kg;
• Approximately 2 treatments for a long haired dog weighing 8 kg.
Properties : The formulation contains a coating agent. Therefore, spraying builds up a film.
In the absence of safety studies, the minimum treatment interval is 4 weeks.
The minimum dose for the product is one pump. Therefore, this product is only suitable for puppies and kittens from 2 days old that weigh more than 166 g.

For this reason, care must be taken to keep these individuals warm after treatment whilst remembering to keep treated animals away from fires or other sources of heat as the product is highly flammable.
