Phenyl Pyrazoles

PHENYL PYRAZOLES

Fipronil

  • Blocks transmission of signals by the inhibitory neuro transmitter GABA - the compounds binds within  the Cl channel and consequently inhibits the flux of Cl- ions into the nerve cell resulting in hyperexcitation of insect nervous system
  • Fipronil is lipophilic, diffuses into the sebaceous glands of hair follicles and acts as a reservoir – It has long residual activity
  • Sunlight/baths etc., do not affect this spray spot-on, it is safe for pups and  kittens and has  knockdown effects on fleas/ticks
