I know you were asking about chemical repellents, but I have to put a

I have used the permethrin-based spot-on type repellent last summer and
this summer so far. I really can't see it does much for flies. There are
still barn flies and definitely horse flies landing on them. They are
sprayed with Ultasheild too. Nothing works

Well, I think it is from having lush, green, long grass pastures. I am

Hi Everyone!
I was wondering if anyone has a suggestions that can help my Fjord, Theo.

Anyone have any bird raising suggestions that eat fly's and mosquitoes? I
have a barn full of swallows now and no bugs, but when they leave the bug
population rises. Any birds that will eat insects that will stay around?
Thanks

We had all types of domestic birds for tick, fly and mosquito control over the

decreased, mosquitos stayed the same, but my husband couldn't handle the noise.
