For use with the VetGun™, VetGun™ II and VetGun™ III Propelled Insecticide Delivery Systems.  

The VetGun™ Insecticide Delivery System is a unique system for delivering insecticide-filled AiM-A and AiM-L VetCaps to control horn flies and lice on cattle without having to catch the cattle and run them through the chute.  The AiM-L VetCaps, which burst upon contact, deliver the powerful insecticide.  The VetGun™ is powered by CO2 and can be utilized from 15' - 30' away. Simply aim, shoot and treat the cattle.

AiM-L VetCaps  are softgel capsules that contain liquid insecticide to treat lice and horn flies in cattle. They are effective for controlling biting and sucking lice, as well as face flies and horn flies, on beef cattle weighing over 600 lbs. The capsules contain lambda-cyhalothrin, an EPA-registered pyrethroid, and piperonyl butoxide.  (Treatment for flies may be repeated as needed, but not more than once every two weeks. Do not apply more than four times in any 6-month period.  For optimal lice control, an initial application followed by a second treatment two weeks later is recommended).

AiM-A VetCaps are softgel capsules that contain abamectin, an insecticide registered with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and are used to control horn flies on beef cattle and non-lactating dairy cattle that weigh more than 600 lbs. AiM-A VetCaps can be used in rotation with AiM-L VetCaps to combat horn fly resistance. Each type of VetCaps uses a different mode of action to combat horn fly resistance, and AiM-A provides knockdown and control of horn flies and remains greater than 95% effective in the control of flies through four weeks.

The VetGun™ is easy to operate for men and women, quite accurate and a reliable, low stress way to treat cattle. Cattle may be treated while milling around or feeding, without added stress or labor. Allows one person to easily apply insecticide from horseback, pickup, ATV, or while on foot. Saves time and puts you in control of when and where you treat your cattle. 

**Please note that shipment of the Aim A or Aim L Gelcaps to the states of Alaska,  California, Hawaii, Massachusetts, New York and Vermont is prohibited.

The leading cause of economic loss in the cattle industry is from parasites, particularly horn flies.  Horn flies interrupt cattle from grazing and can cause as much as one pint of blood loss per day per animal, resulting in up to 30 percent less weight gain in just 80 days.

  • Overall, horn flies cost the U.S. cattle industry nearly $1 billion per year. Treatment methods against these blood-sucking parasites include spray-ons, pour-ons, insecticide eartags, dustbags and feed additives. But the most traditional horn fly treatments require rounding up the cattle and running them through a chute. This labor-intensive process provides inaccurate dosage control, creates stress and risks injury to you and your cattle.  
  • Because most cattle raisers try to handle their cattle as little as possible, some parasites aren't treated at the best time or don't get treated at all.  Using the VetGun™ with the AiM VetCaps provide control where and when you need it.  
  • Visit the VetGun™ Channel on YouTube for video tutorials on how to use their products.
  • When administering Aim A abamectin GelCaps, please allow at least 90 days withdrawl time for animals going to slaughter.
  • We are unable to accept returns of CO2 and Insecticides, which includes Aim Gelcaps.
  • We may substitute 5 boxes of 30 AiM Gelcaps for a box of 150 when necessary.
