Fly control for cattle advised by Kansas State expert
A Kansas State University entomologist advises cattlemen to treat face and horn flies now to prevent big buildups. Self treatment options like dust bags and backrubbers are cheapest and effective. Flys overwinter in barns and attics and menace cattle outdoors, reducing feed intake and increasing eye problems. Horn flies bite day and night, overwinter under manure pads, and require sprays or mineral blocks. Publications on control mixtures are available at county extension offices alongside seed and wheat guidance for fairs.
