Re: [RC] fly control - Bill Johnson

Hello Andrea,

We   feed   free   feed   our   beet   pulp   to  our little herd of 1
stallion,  3 geldings, 3 mares and 3 (2 month old) foals every day. We
add  2-3  cups of food grade DE along with salt and 2 cups of grain to
every  5  gallon  bucket  of  beet pulp. We usually make up 4 of these
buckets to feed.

We  saw  a  dramatic  decrease  in  flys on the piles of manure in the
fields within about 2 weeks.
