Staff photo Warbles are costly Warble grubs in beef and dairy cattle can cause a dollar loss greater than most producers realize because they reduce production of meat and milk, says Dennis McKnight, lecturer at Kemptville College of Agricultural Technology, near Ottawa. Warble flies lay their eggs on the legs and undersides of -cattle during June, July and August. This activity terrifies the cattle and causes them to run about madly with tails high in the air. "Such wild running, called gadding; results in losses through physical injury, weight loss and loss in milk production. At market time, buyers at the packer and tanner level must discount grubby cattle." Mr. McKnight says successful treatment can mean an extra $15 to $20 return from each calf and yearling raised on pasture. Treated cattle gain up to 16 percent faster and a cow's milk flow can increase as much as 2112 pounds per day. A survey last year by the Meat Packers' Council showed that losses in Ontario range from $12 to $25 per head, depending on the number of grubs present on the RIBBON -CUTTING AT BAYFIELD — Officials and politicians Jined up with scissors during the opening ceremony at Bayfield's Clan Gregor senior citizen's apartments W.

Staff Photo animal. Directly or indirectly, it may be costing farmers up to $50 per head for untreated, infected cattle. Grubs can be controlled easily and efficiently with systemics such as Co-ral, Ruelene, Neguvon, Brubex, Co-op Warble Killer, and Spotton. These systemics are available as pour - on, sprays, and spot-on products. "However, it is important that these materials be used at the right time. For the most effective control, start treating your cattle in September,. October or November." Mr. McKnight says producers should not treat cattle in December, January or February because of possible side effects. "Lactating dairy cattle and dairy cows within three to seven days of freshening should not be treated. The number • of days depends on the insecticide used, so follow the manufacturer's directions for safe and successful treatment," Treatment costs between 35 and 75 cents per head, a small price to pay for the increased. return from warble -free cattle. • CRAFT SUPPLIES Chair caning: Macrame; Fun Fur: • Rowney Art Supplies; Beads of all I types; Instruction Books.
