Summer means fly season is here. While flies may seem like just another nuisance around the barn, they can have a much bigger impact on herd health.
Flies can carry bacteria from manure, wet bedding, and infected udders to healthy cows, increasing the risk of mastitis and other health challenges. The result is reduced cow comfort, compromised calf health, and lower milk quality.
