We have a customer that is curious about our mineral with Cinnamon and Garlic for fly control. It does NOT kill flies, it repels them but
it does repel other flies, not just horn flies (IGR only kills horn flies in that they hatch prematurely and die) so we are talking two different things here. We have 2 customers that tried the mineral with CG (cinnamon and garlic) and really liked what they saw and that is what they are ordering this spring. I cannot sell it as fly repellent because there is no research supporting that, but I can pass along what others are experiencing with their cattle. CG does increase performance, so that is the reason our company even has it. Repelling flies is a side benefit, or if the main focus is repelling flies, then the added performance is a side benefit. Anyway, it will be interesting to see your responses. And THANKS!!
