[QUOTE="M.Magis, post: 1022887, member: 14175"] In time they seem to learn what they are. Growing up, my dad would put a cable between two trees and drape an old piece of carpet over it. Then he’d pour crude oil from the gas well over it. We could put a rub anywhere, and the cows would seek it out. These days I use old engine oil, because I have a lot of it, thinned with a little diesel, plus permethrin. Out of a gallon, I only use about two cups of diesel. That’s enough for the oil to soak into the rub. Seems to work okay, and is cheaper than straight diesel. I set them up leading to water, or getting into the breeze way of the barn, maybe 3.5’ high.
