Abstract: A multilayer laminated collar design provides exceptionally good protection against undesirable contact with the pesticide-bearing surface, together with suitably effective pesticidal activity. The insecticidal animal collar is formed by covering a flexible pesticidal strip component with a top cover layer that is impermeable to the pesticide. When secured around the animal, such laminated arrangement help present pesticide residue from being present on the surface of the collar that is likely to come into contact with humans, furniture, or other animals.
