[QUOTE="AllForage, post: 792557, member: 14878"] Jim, Have you considered the woods as part of the problem. They are most likely harboring there and the infestation is occuring there. As far as another natural lice control, Diatomaceous earth. Dusted on the backs periodically. Fleet farm is now carrying it up here in Appleton. We vaccinate humans for some things that are not exactly a problem unless very risky behaviour occurs. I simply have never and I have not had a problem. It is a whole farm management system that has worked for me. I feed the kelp, redmond salt, and mid-west bio-ag mineral seperately free-choice. The chelated iodine in the kelp is what wards off pinkeye. Sometimes you have to remind yourself that cattlemen of the past got by with a lot less and made it. What would you do if there wasn't a medicine cabinet to run to. Have you noticed that certain cows are routinely becoming liced every year. If so you could add that to your selection process. Just like fly resistance can be selected for. [/QUOTE]
