[QUOTE="SRBeef, post: 687554, member: 7509"] I am no expert in fly control but the dewormers are designed to be that, dewormers, for internal parasites. They are potent and have a withdrawal period. The label says the dose should be applied by weight of the animal. Randomly applying dewormer as a fly control does not seem like a good idea to me. Another approach is to spray them with Permectrin mixed in diesel fuel. This is intended for fly control. The diesel keeps the Permectrin/permythrin (sp) on them longer than water. Watch out for fly control mixes that caution against causing blindness if get in the eyes.... Or use a rub doused with the same mix. Needs to be done frequently with rains the way they are across the north. jmho. Jim [/QUOTE]
