I have been using the fly control blocks, but my cows eat them way to fast, it's not really cost effective. What do you guys use that is more cost effective?

I put on fly tags, worm, and implant after a month on pasture. It seemed to me that fly tags were less expensive then feed additives or blocks. Did your try them?

We once tried fly tags...didn't last that long.
