[QUOTE="ksmit454, post: 1748318, member: 39792"] I have 2 different groups of cattle. My feeder steers, and my bred cows/heifers. Flies are awful this year. I usually put out fly bags, and just spray them with fly spray. I have been spraying every single day, and the cows are still miserable. Steers are getting processed in September so I’m not sure about withdrawal times on them with some pesticides. The biggest issue is face flies. What sprays can I use that work better and are more economical? What about a feed thru fly control mineral…? Dust bags? I just need to think about the feeder steers to make sure there isn’t a withdrawal since they are getting processed in September. I saw some homemade fly mixes on here from a few members that I might try too. What’s the best container to put the mix in to spray them well? Most of my cattle are docile so I can get close (esp with a bucket of cubes). [/QUOTE]
