[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 14246"] There are at least two maybe three options you might want to consider. If the animals (exception baby calves) need to be wormed you might consider ivomec injected or pour-on or eprinex pour-on which is also an ivermectin. You could spray with permethrin ( I use Coral) and just not direct the spray to the calves. Or a cheap and effective control that will need periodic application is a product like Cylence applied as a pour on. I would not do anything to the baby calves.
