Nice. 33lb. Fly Blocks work very well here when bovines are deprived of other sources of salt. It runs 21% as I recall in the block and works really well for free roaming herds that aren't adjacent to unprotected neighbor's neglected animals. TSC and other places carry them.
Other thing that works is the back rubber that TSC and lots of other places sell. Insecticides are specially made for it which they market.. Hang it in a raceway or some place they frequent; have hung it between 2 trees where cows frequent in the summer for cooling shade.
They like getting their backs rubbed. Also use a pour on wormer (generic Ivomec) which gives you about 60 days of fly control to go along with the intended purpose. Have tried sulphur salt blocks but not very effective.

In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
