Spectrum interceptor question

[Emac909]

Does anyone one know if interceptor chew tablets have a shelf life? I got a tablet from my brother. He said it was like a year or two old. Do u think it's still going to be effective as if I bought new ones?

storage history will play a factor heat and light as well ask him and see where he had it but most likely they should be fine , moisture will play a factor as well . My sister works for a vet so this is what she told me when I asked her

They where in his barn. It can hit triple digits in the barn durning the summer. So yea I don't think it's good. Does anyone in the north ie area have any tabs for sale.

Just my opinion but I think they should be fine... drug companies wouldn't make as much money if they didn't have a shelf life or expiration date. I mean if it was a liquid then heat and evaporation yes, but pill forms I'm not so sure.

Sure a chewable tab may be a bit hard and crusty... but crunch that sucker up and do it.

I think you should be fine and honestly I would advise to treat the tank 2-3 times right after each other to fully remove it. I would try what you have as the first treatment. If it doesn't work, it wouldn't be any worse than just tossing them.

I have a couple that I saved for myself after giving away a bunch. It's been about 2 years since I've bought them but they stay in a cool dry place.
