This Super-Min GoGro with Fly Away Garlic an all-natural pest deterrent perfect for fly control for all livestock through a heavy supplementation of garlic in their diet. Garlic Flavored Mineral. Net Weight 8lbs (3.63kg) Cattle fed with garlic emit an odor through their skin and breath that can deter flies. As a natural product, garlic is safe, easy to handle and easy to apply. Not only can garlic reduce flies on or near the livestock, but garlic in manure has also anecdotally been tied to reduced egg laying in manure emboldened with garlic. Garlic is often suggested as a natural deterrent for flies and other insects that bother livestock. Garlic contains a compound called allicin, which is believed to have insect-repellent properties. When consumed, the odor from garlic can be excreted through the skin, sweat, and breath, creating a scent that some insects, including flies, find unpleasant. It's important to consider that relying solely on garlic as a fly deterrent may not provide complete control over fly populations. Implementing comprehensive fly control strategies, such as good sanitation practices, proper manure management, fly traps, and insecticides approved for livestock use, may be necessary for more effective fly control.
