Suspected adverse reaction. On 17 Aug 2022, a veterinarian reported that a client reported that his hired help sprayed an entire gallon of Ultra Boss on 12 head of 1500-1800 pound 18 month old Brangus bulls off label. The veterinarian reported that it was a very hot humid day and they were getting the bulls ready for sale pictures. A few hours later, they found 2 of the bulls dead. The veterinarian felt that the bulls got overheated and died of heat exhaustion. The veterinarian was going to talk to the owner about necropsying the bulls and reported that the other 10 bulls were doing fine. No further follow up expected.
