RE: [RC] pesticide ear tags - Kitley, Carrie E Civ USAF AFSPC 30 MDSS/SGSLFCan someone please remind me how many 50's a horse has to complete before entering a Tevis? My husband was asking and I couldn't remember. Tevis is a LONG way off for me (if ever). lol Carrie Kitley 30th Medical Group, Vandenberg AFB DMLSS?Database Sustainment Specialist (DSS) CACI?International Inc? www.caci.com dsn?276-1077, Comm (805) 606-1077 fax dsn?276-1179 <\_~ // \\ carrie.kitley@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx? -----Original Message----- From: ridecamp-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:ridecamp-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Ginger Bill Sent: Friday, June 13, 2008 2:14 PM To: Barbara McCrary; ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: RE: [RC] pesticide ear tags I rode 20 plus miles last Sunday with friends of mine. Everyone sprayed down their horses and I am old so sometimes I have a brain dump. Needless to say, I had just said that I'd better spray as well, but I just climbed up on my horse and took off. Daaaaaaa! Anyway the flies were out big time and one of the other riders asked how those ear tags worked because not a bug lit on my horse. Heck, I'd forgotten that I had stuck one in his tail a few days earlier. I have to use them on my husbands horse because he gets terrible sweet itch every year and I had one ear tag left so I clipped it on my horses tail, being too lazy to put it up in the tack shed. It worked so well that the other riders made a run on the feed store. Barbara, you are so RIGHT. I got the heck bitten out of me, but my horse was untouched. Thank you for the wisdom.

One study I read says they don't show any appreciable effectiveness.

I went and asked the rancher next door if I could try a couple. So I have 4 tags here and would like some ideas on how to braid them into the mane. I thought I would try a couple different ways and see what works the best. If I can get them to stay for longer than a few days I will give them a try this summer.. thanks vickie hogen ________________________________ Get the Moviefone Toolbar <http://toolbar.aol.com/moviefone/download.html?ncid=aolcmp00050000000011> .
