The thick, ointment formula stays in place, making it practical for facial areas and ears where flies commonly congregate. It’s formulated to both repel and neutralize house, face, horn and stable flies and can be used to treat minor abrasions and superficial skin injuries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this ointment protect wounds from flies?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe formula contains pyrethrins, an insecticidal compound derived from chrysanthemum flowers, paired with piperonyl butoxide which enhances effectiveness. Applied to superficial wounds, the ointment forms a protective, sticky barrier that deters flies and reduces the chance of wound contamination.

Because the texture is thick, it adheres to skin and hair without running into the eyes when applied carefully. Always avoid direct eye contact and use a small amount around sensitive areas, monitoring the animal for irritation after first use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSuitable for ears, muzzle and other facial spots\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eApply sparingly and avoid the animal’s eyes and mouth\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCheck the area for any unusual reaction after application\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat active ingredients are in the 7 oz Swat Fly Ointment and what do they do?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe active components include pyrethrins (0.2%), piperonyl butoxide technical (0.5%), and propylisocinchomeronate (1.0%).
