Willem Burger, [23 Nov 2022 at 09:41:59]: Fipronil application to 5 month old cheetah cubs with excessive tick burden in southern Cape Coastal region, using Motsumi specially adapted darts without needle and without firing pin spring. This allows for very low setting and low impact darting on fragile sized targets. Thank you to David from Motsumi for adaptions and continuous new innovations!! Henry Labuschagne, [23 Nov 2022 at 11:48:35]: Do those darts have a firing pin ? David Pretorius, [23 Nov 2022 at 11:51:36]: Yes - they just don't have a spring so they detonate easier than a normal dart. This is when using for instance 1 bar of pressure or less. Henry Labuschagne, [23 Nov 2022 at 11:54:31]: Sorry I missed that CPD lecture. The other darts have three exit ports to spray the dip Ulf Tubessing, [23 Nov 2022 at 15:50:01]: Great work David! I like the way you listen to our ideas and then come up with very practical dart solutions. David Pretorius, [23 Nov 2022 at 15:55:01]: Thanks Ulf. I am always grateful for the input you guys give!

We received excellent responses from Louis Greeff, Gerhard Steyn, Willem Burger and many others. Works especially well on eland this time of the year, and may save you having to treat an ear or 2 full of ticks. Luis Amaral, [23 Nov 2022 at 16:01:52]: This will be great for our coastal area which is riddled with ticks What sizes do you sell them in? David Pretorius, [23 Nov 2022 at 16:05:33]: We pre-fill them with 10% fipronil for 100kg, 200kg, 300kg, 400kg and 500kg animals. The price is constant for all darts.
