[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1590630, member: 9096"] we have very few horseflies here, haven't seen a single one this year, last year I saw a dozen or so.. the cows KNOW the difference between a horsefly and anything else, they'll run like mad when one lands on them.. I suppose if there were a lot of them they'd just deal with it My bull is always covered in flies, he comes up to me begging me to swat them, without exaggeration I can get 100's in a swipe.. He doesn't really like the fly spray though because it makes a cloud of flies that gets in his face and bothers him more.. so I have to be sneaky about it. Most of the calves don't mind the spray, I usually have a curry comb to brush them at the same time.. a few cows haven't figured out the benefits though, Prada was not having any of it today, until I got her in a small pen and she had no choice in the matter [/QUOTE]
