If it works on Deer it probably works on cows to.
Wisconsin seems to still be free of the Asian longhorned tick. We have enough to deal with from Deer Ticks and Wood Ticks.
Our dogs all get shots for ticks now, plus are sprayed down on a regular basis with a Permethrin solution for fleas and ticks, especially during the months they are up north bear hunting.
I haven’t sprayed Chuck, but he’s going to ‘The Spa’ in March. ;)
