[QUOTE="Running Arrow Bill, post: 219594, member: 9"] We once tried fly tags...didn't last that long. Besides you have to "work" cattle to put them on. Anyhoo...we've been having good success with our fly management program (i.e., Bio Remedies mineral products). And, we routinely de-worm with Ivomec injectible 2X a year, sometimes more frequently on selected animals if any worms suspected. We don't do implants, incidentally, since we're not raising "slaughter beef" and we're a seedstock operation. Also have a good "visitation" by lots of birds as well as dung beetles that help keep bug problem down. Rarely see any mosquitos since we have annual re-visitations of our "barn swallow herd"...lol. Have nests in/on all of our structures. We also spray individual cattle as needed with Permectin II for horn/hoof/body flies on a few susceptible animals. [/QUOTE]
