Face Flies

How does everyone control flies on your cattle's faces during the summer months? This year seems pretty bad!

Thanks

Agreed this year has been bad.  I use Cylence every 60 days.  Works great

I am sure I will catch hell from some,  but we use no type of insecticide.  Our Galloways are not bothered nearly as much asmo st cattle.  Our neighbors cows are bunchedup fight ing flies.  Ours are out grazing at the same time of day.  Adjoining pastures.

Natural bred in resistance.

My parent don't do anything for their herd.  I live in a marsh with sand ridges surrounding it. Between the mosquitoes and the sand flies, it's almost unbearable for any creature.
