A historical note details a zinc sulphate and boric acid dressing for fly struck sheep. It outlines preparation in emulsion form with zinc sulphate or boric acid, starch, carbon tetrachloride, and water, using a syringe for application, noting penetration, maggot kill within minutes, occasional mild irritation, and that carbon tetrachloride content cannot be reduced without losing efficacy.
