Use the used motor oil for weed control along your fences and around you fence post. If you have cattle, set a fence post in the pasture and put a gunny sack over it. Pour the oil on that and you won’t have to buy fly spray for your cows as they will rub themselves on it.

When we used fences, we poured burnt, or used, we called it burnt, around all fence posts. We also used it to make back scracthers for the animals inside the fences. People with hunting dogs used on their dogs when they got the mange. It was also used on farm equipment.
