maybe we are giving the right dosage, who knows, but we have not run into 
that problem. we talked to our vet and he told us that it would not cause a 
problem as long as we did not over do it and he told us not to go over a cup 
a day. we are now feeding 1/4 cup/day fed in the evening feed and we have not 
had a fly problem(no flies on horses at all) for about 4 wks 
it seems to be working for us
