Flyspray knapsack

[Hb21]

Is there any fly sprays that can be put through a knapsack sprayer for putting on quiet groups of cattle at grass? Or anything anyone has mixed up to use, currently use spot on and getting in certain groups is a pain.
What are people using instead of spot on never seems to be that great at keeping the fly's off.

Spot on is not made to keep the flies off the cattle . It works by killing any fly that lands on the cattle , thus reducing the population . This last week of humid heat has seen a huge number of flies so even trated cattle had a fair few flies on them .
Years ago there was a product called Flymort which was very effective at keeping flies off but did not kill them and washed off very easily.
