Abstract
A tail tag assembly for attachment to the tail switch of an animal including an engaging member having a slotted head which gathers animal hair as it is urged into an elongated member having a narrow passage therein. A retention shoulder is contained in the elongated member so that when the engaging member is urged into the elongated member it is retained. A pest-control strip is positioned between a flange on the engaging member and the adjacent portion of the elongated member so as to contact the animal body as the tail moves.
