Description ScratchE Heat Detector – 50 Pack ScratchE Heat Detector is a self-adhesive oestrus detector that improves cattle heat detection. A protective top layer rubs off under mounting pressure to reveal a bright under layer, so standing heat is easy to spot and AI can be timed with confidence. What is ScratchE? A tailhead indicator that changes colour as mounting activity increases, helping you confirm true heat. Why choose ScratchE Heat Detector? Indicates the level of bulling activity with progressive colour reveal. Superior adhesive strength and a large surface that moulds over the backbone. Quick one-person application, economical for herd use. Five bright colours for easy mob management. How it works Herd mates rub the protective layer during mounting. The bright under layer becomes visible after sustained activity, distinguishing true heat from casual rubbing. Packs and colours Pack format: convenient strips of 5 patches. Pack size: 50 patches per packet. Colours: five high-visibility options. Application tips Apply to clean, dry hair on the tailhead or over the spine behind the hips. Remove loose hair and avoid areas recently treated with pour-ons. Press firmly across the whole patch. Do not reposition once placed. Check cows twice daily during breeding and replace patches as needed. Trusted brand Beacon has supported Australian producers since 1995 with reliable, locally designed heat detection tools.
