I'm looking for a natural treatment for lice in cattle that you've used and personally recommend!

During grooming today, I found a considerable infestation on my new calf, so everyone gets to be treated! Yaaay, not.

Any input would be greatly appreciated! And if all else fails, chemicals are a last resort.

try orange oil, the oil will help smother them and also helps repeal flys, fleas, mosqitoes and ticks, its safe for all animals and humans alike...
