BEEF AND DAIRY CATTLE AND HORSES: Can be used in dust bags, shaker can and mechanical dust applicator.
Horn Flies, Lice, Face Flies: Place contents of this package in any commercially available dust bag, suspend bag in areas frequented by cattle or in gateways or lanes through which the animals must pass daily for water, feed, or minerals. Bags may also be placed in loafing sheds or in front of mineral feeders. For dairy cows, bags may be suspended in the exit through which the cows leave the milking barn. The bags should hang 4 to 6 inches below the back line of the cattle. For reduction of Face Flies, bags must be located so animals will be forced to use them daily and hung at a height so that the face is dusted.

Treatment of Lice on doves
By Tamra on 03/20/2016
Used 1tbl spoon in 1 quart of room temp water. Used long kitchen gloves and held the dove gently and submerged backend first in solution until level reached neckline careful not to let head or eyes touch the solution. The dove was held in this position for about 30 seconds and lifted each wing slightly to allow solution to cover undersides of wings. Once done I used a dry washcloth to pat the bird dry. Only 1 treatment was necessary and worked like a charm.

Excellent product. Had Minnesota red aphids all over plants and yard. Made a shaker from a mason jar, shook it everywhere and aphids were gone in 2 days. Thank you. Saved my peas, beans and strawberries.

Martins Viper Insecticide is labeled for fleas in your lawn and can be used on pets. We would recommend treating outdoors every 14 days to continue to kill the flea population. On pets, it is recommended that you do treatments every three weeks as needed.
