finally a cattle question! you can go to any farm store and purchase fly spray in a can. if there inside you can also put up fly traps and stuff to keep the flys down inside.

There are sprays made especially for the problem . go to a grain and feed store or something like it.. spray away from food and water

If flies are bothering your cattle, you can buy spray or shampoo for them that will keep most flies off them for a period of time. Remember, bugs and insects carry diseases that may harm your cattle so i would recomend getting a spray for it and if that doesn't work you might want to get some shampoo for it. Then if you are still having trouble, i would ask a vet for more advise.

put an oiler in with them, they can be made or bought at a farm store. we have both home made is two posts with a rope or cable in between with burlap or some kind of cloth soak in diesel or fly repellent, the cattle go under neath and it gets on their back, or you can get one made of steel and you fill it with oil or repellent..
