Anyone use a fly repellent on their cattle if so what?

Don't wrestle with pigs, they will love it and you will just get all muddy.

Let go of who you are and become who you are meant to be.

We tried Flypor for the past couple of years - seems to work OK - though the cattle find the best solution is being allowed inside the cattle shed when the biters are about up on the fields...
