Mixing Spray In Home No Longer Profitable
Home made fly sprays for household use are no longer recommended as commercial products prove more efficient and convenient. A suggested spray uses kerosene base pyrethium extract, petroleum oil, and pine oil, applied lightly to cows to avoid skin and udder contact, with caution in hot weather to prevent fever-like reactions. Manure management notes advise daily gathering and field spreading in peak months July to September.
