Zeelice PFS

For management of red mites, lice and ticks in poultry

Ectoparasites such as ticks, mites and lice poses a significant threat to the poultry industry. Hematophagous avian mites, also known as The Poultry Red Mite, know as Dermanyssus gallinae, stands as the most impactful ectoparasite globally and posses a significant threat to the poultry industry. These mites are worrisome for both veterinary and medical reasons, as they could potentially spread bacterial and viral diseases.

A synergistic blend of phyto-molecules and plant-derived essential oils, for mitigating mite infestations through a multifaceted strategy.

ACARICIDAL AND REPELLENT ACTION:
Natural bioactives of Zeelice powder exhibit acaricidal and repellent properties against mites, effectively preventing infestations in poultry birds.

INHIBITION OF EXOSKELETON FORMATION:
Natural bioactives of Zeelice powder inhibit the formation of exoskeletons in lice by disrupting chitin synthesis-an integral component of ectoparasitic exoskeletons-leading to their demise.

DISRUPTION OF GROWTH CYCLE:
Natural growth cycle of lice and mites in poultry birds by disturbing moulting hormones activity, hindering larval moulting and subsequent growth, ultimately resulting in their demise.

NEUROTOXIC EFFECT:
Natural bioactives of Zeelice powder function by blocking octopamine neurotransmission in ectoparasites, leading to the breakdown of their nervous systems. This effect does not impact poultry birds as they lack receptors for octopamine.

IMPROVED IMMUNITY:
Natural bioactives of Zeelice powder optimize immune responses against ectoparasitic infestations, aiding in both cellular and antibody-mediated immune responses against mites and lice, enhancing the bird1's ability to combat them.
