Label monitoring of fenamiphos products

Recent examination of labels for sheep ectoparasiticide products have resulted in corrective action being taken on some labels.

The APVMA will shortly commence a label audit of fenamiphos products that were the subject of a recent APVMA review. Companies marketing these products will be contacted for copies of current labels. Holders of these products should check that the labels comply with current APVMA requirements.
