[QUOTE="Farmhand, post: 87414, member: 1292"] The motor oil was just sprayed on the barn walls for dust control. Light amount so that none of the animals were rolling around or laying in it. There shouldn't be any running oil down the walls or pools of it on the floor. Dad mainly did this in the hog barns. They always seemed dustier than where the cattle were. Can't recall where I saw the dangers of motor oil or what Dad told me. Just remember it made enough of an impact on me that I make sure they don't get in it. Think of things like motor oil plugging up the skin and glands and definitely don't want it in their respitory tract. Motor oil is heavier and harder to get rid of than diesal fuel. Also diesel fuel is used in the cattle backrubs so they are not getting large amounts like laying in motor oil. [/QUOTE]
