Elanco CyLence Ultra Cattle Ear Tags – Fly & Tick Insecticide, 20-Tag Pack

Overview

Elanco CyLence Ultra Insecticide Cattle Ear Tags bring a practical, multi‑species approach to fly and tick control for beef and dairy herds. Designed to fit into real farm routines, these tags combine targeted insecticidal action with easy application, helping you manage flies and ticks around the ears where they’re most noticeable during daily chores and grazing.

Each mature animal should wear two tags, while calves receive one tag each. The formulation features 20% piperonyl butoxide and 8% beta-cyfluthrin, a fifth‑generation pyrethroid, chosen for localized, on‑the‑spot protection where pests tend to gather. When used as directed, CyLence Ultra can provide up to five months of protection against face flies and horn flies, helping to reduce irritation and disturbance during key times of the year.

The ear tags come in a straightforward package: one box with two pouches of ten tags each. They are designed to work with the Allflex Universal Total Tagger, a widely used tagging tool that many farms already own, which can help speed up tagging sessions and keep handling smooth and predictable.

Field results may vary, but many users report quieter heads and fewer biting sensations around the ears after tags are in place. The practical design is meant to stay secured through routine handling, grazing, and tranquil movements at the chute, supporting regular herd management without adding complexity to daily routines.
