I have a shorthorn calf who is coughing and is covered with flies. She is being wormed with Ivomec, sprayed with Bronco fly spray with citronella scent, and I use a roll on fly repellar on her eyes and nose. I also spray the walkway infront of her pen with Bronco fly spray and liquid seven. She has a bad habit of licking her back once she is sprayed, and I don't want to effect her immune sysem. Am I causing her cough? Should I stop use of the insect repllants? Am I just being paranoid? How else could I controll the fly problem without hurting her (the flys are in her eyes a lot, but I am trying to use a fly mask made for horses)?
