Hair do you know if the NAIS is going to go into effect soon, or is it just something waiting in the wings?
Thanks. I wish I could get some spectacular pictures like you do but when they do something cute my camera has a delay.
Gross. I'm looking at something I got in the mail today. It's a flier (pun intended haha) for natural fly control. You buy paracites that eat flies I guess. Ugly looking creatures.
I would love to visit but don't want you to have to change your plans.
Chomp chomp. I never had any problems with my kids biting. I was talking to mom today and it seems I was a biter myself:')
Swallowing a spider to catch the fly?
The horse groups that I thought would align squarely against it appear to be cooperating with it. I just don't get it.
Maybe. " Fly eliminators are shipped as parasitized fly pupae. in sawdust. Once hatched, simply disperse small HANDFULS or scoops every 3-4 weeks on:manure piles, under water thorghs, below bedding, corners of pens, and paddocks, and FEEDING SITES.
DC is kind of central. Let's do a horse freep at the capital. We would probably need to bring feed but there is a nice tank with plenty of grass by that monument.
Huh - I accomplish pretty good natural fly control just by spreading poo regularly during fly season so it dries out and flies don't lay eggs in it. I also can't prove it, but I think my many anthills on the property also feed on fly larvae. I sure see a lot of ants moving to and from manure piles.
Well I'm tossing it in the trash. I don't want to be responsible for tagging and keeping up with where they go:')
Certainly not ;~D
Have you seen this?http://nonais.org/
Yeah - they're the author of the article I pinged.
They work REALLY well. The stable down the street from me uses them. I am about to place my first order when I get back from Kentucky week after next.
They have about 10 acres with around 40 horses, and nary a fly around. I was amazed the first time I walked through their barn and it dawned on me that something was missing ... the flies.
I'd be tempted to call them every day, several times, to report every time my horse takes a shit!
And I honestly think they would be so overwhelmed with data if everyone cooperated, that they couldn't possibly sort through it let alone enforce it.
But they say it would be a felony not to comply.
