Health Canada’s Pest Management Regulatory Agency (PMRA), under the authority of the Pest Control Products Act and Regulations, is proposing full registration for the sale and use of Precor Insect Growth Regulator, and Altosid Beef 2% MUP, containing the technical grade active ingredient (S)-methoprene. Altosid Beef 2% MUP will be used to manufacture the feed product Altosid Beef Cattle Mineral to control horn flies on beef cattle. Altosid Beef Cattle Mineral is exempt from registration under the Pest Control Products Act in accordance with paragraph 4(1)(b) of the Pest Control Product Regulations, and, more specifically, Schedule 2, Section 1. An evaluation of available scientific information found that, under the approved conditions of use, the products have value and do not present an unacceptable risk to human health or the environment. This Overview describes the key points of the evaluation, while the Science Evaluation provides detailed technical information on the human health, environmental and value assessments of Precor Insect Growth Regulator, and Altosid Beef 2% MUP.
