Time to Fight Cattle Grubs Now Till March
The common cattle grub costs U.S. cattlemen millions yearly and can be controlled by Rotenone applications from December through March. Grubs rest on the cattle backs during this period, making them vulnerable. Rotenone over several weeks is the most effective method, reducing losses from grubby hides and trimming beef. Packers incur about $3.50 loss per grubby head. The note also mentions self feeding grain and high protein for laying hens to save time.
