[QUOTE="Fire Sweep Ranch, post: 988815, member: 18809"] OK, something we do that works for us is pour in a bucket a dollop of cheap hair conditioner (like Suave) and a half cup of regular vinegar, then add about a half gallon of water to the bucket to mix it all up, poor it over the back from rear to ear, and the flies seem to leave the cattle alone. We do this to our show cattle since we work them daily, and do not want the hair coat greased up with fly spray. It is a cheap and easy fly repellant for us, and it works. Not practical for some, but those that want to try it will find it works. Must be the smell that repels the flies... I know it makes my nose curl! Lucky, any reason it would not work? [/QUOTE]
