[QUOTE="SRBeef, post: 687582, member: 7509"] 82vett, The permectrin can be mixed in mineral oil or vegetable oil, diesel is just more available. I use rubs myself but don't see much difference between a cow standing under a recently soaked rub (as they are doing today) vs a light spray from a garden sprayer. They like the rub with the flyps hanging down, especially right after I soak it. I think they are smart enough to realize that this helps keep the annoying flies away. Not arguing, I just don't see the difference. If you don't like diesel, mix it with mineral oil or vegetable oil. It does get on their undersides better than a rub. The PHWhite rub website is where I first got the diesel idea and it seems to work with no ill effects. The key appears to be use some sort of oil rather than water. Jim [/QUOTE]
