What are pour-on drenches? 

Pour-on cattle drenches are liquid treatments applied directly along the backline of cattle. They’re designed to quickly penetrate the skin and provide broad-spectrum protection against internal and external parasites, including worms, ticks, and lice.

Why is cattle drenching important? 

Cattle drenching is an important practice for all producers as parasites can significantly impact the health and productivity of your herd, and consequently affect your livelihood. Worms, ticks, and lice drain vital nutrients, leading to weight loss, reduced milk production, poor coat condition, and in severe cases, death. By regularly using pour-on drenches, you’re guaranteeing the safety and health of your animals. 

Why choose pour-on drenches over other options? 

The main reason many farmers opt to use pour-on cattle drenches is because they are extremely convenient and easy to use. They’re applied directly along the backline of the cow, reducing application stress for both you and your animals, and don’t require much in the way of special equipment. 

Pour-on drenches are also designed to minimise handling, making them an ideal choice for large herds or when time is limited.

How to apply pour-on drenches 

Using a pour-on cattle drench is straightforward once you know what to do. Follow these steps to get the most out of your application: 

  • Prepare your equipment: Use a calibrated applicator for pour-on drenches to ensure the accurate dosage is administered. 
  • Weigh your cattle: Calculate the correct amount of product to use from the animal’s weight.
  • Apply along the backline: Starting at the shoulders, pour the drench in a steady line along the back to the tail head. Avoid areas where the product may rub off easily.
  • Follow label instructions: Always read and follow the manufacturer’s directions for safe and effective use of pour-on drenches. 

When to drench your cattle using a pour-on drench

You should determine your optimal drenching time based on the parasites present, the season, and your farm’s management plan. There are a few key times and events to keep in mind when you do: 

  • Spring and autumn: These seasons typically see higher parasite loads, which makes them ideal for regular drenching. 
  • Weaning and pre-calving: Drenching at these times ensures young cattle and pregnant cows are protected during critical growth and reproductive periods. 
  • Before grazing new pastures: Reducing parasite loads before moving cattle to new pastures will help ensure clean paddocks.
