[QUOTE="Dsth, post: 1647445, member: 38038"] I used it for two years because the vets recommended it. They had an informational lunch and meeting about it when it first came out. One of their big claims was how well it prevented pink eye even though it was not labeled as such. The two years that I used it, I had the worst pink eye infections I ever had (in both the cows and calves.) They now recommend using it on the calves before turning out to pastures but not on the cows simply because of the cost. They claim it controls parasites for 6 months so if you use it, I would only treat once a year unless you have a major problem with worm infestations. I have not heard about any claim that it helps reduce flies. Maybe they were referring to the pink eye protection. I do not plan on using it any time in the future. [/QUOTE]
