One of my cows suffers every summer with fly bites near her eyes and this year they are worse than ever.
She has had a full dose of pour on and I also try to put summer fly cream around her face and treat the wounds as close to the eye as possible.
No sooner than it is applied than she has gone up to one of the others and rubbed it off on them, or scratches them with her rear hoof.
Has any one any suggestions for:
i) treatments / dressings that might be more robust?
ii) tried an equine fly mask on a cow?
