[QUOTE="Fire Sweep Ranch, post: 1342561, member: 18809"] I figured out something cool on application (of Ultra Boss). Usually, we bring the cattle up and pour them in a pen, so they can not get too far away to reach and pour. That can be a pain in the rear to bring them up, and I always worry about the smaller calves getting bumped or hurt. We had a huge break out of Pink Eye, so I have been hitting the cattle hard with fly control (we also use IGR in the mineral). Anyway, I could not find my applicator cup to pour with, and the average pour volume is 15 mls. I got the idea to use an old 20 ml syringe to pour them.... and tried it. Not only is it perfect (because you draw up the correct dosage), but you can squirt it from a distance! YES! So the last time I poured, I did it in the pasture! I just took the bottle out on the 4 wheeler, and a big cup. I poured the cup 3/4 the way full, and sucked up the 15 ml in the syringe. Then walk by a cow and squirt the liquid straight down the back and over the head! I could not believe how easy and fast it was to do it that way. You could do it from your UTV or even horseback if needed! You could even use a preloaded gun, or drenching gun, and not have to suck up each time like I did. Amazing that I did not think of that before.... but glad I lost my applicator cup! [/QUOTE]
