[QUOTE="Highland Mule, post: 8169523, member: 33090"] We had a storm with it in lambs a few years ago, so now do them all with Spotonor as soon as we can (1-2 days), alongside tails/ rings/ tags etc. Crovect isn’t allowed until they are a bit older and the tick doesn’t wait for them. Crovect the ewes at the same time, and then give the lambs a follow up crovect at first vaccine. No more issues since, thank goodness as it was rough to have so many losses in the 5-6 week old range. This year, I’ve done the calves (outdoor) with Spotonor at the same age, again alongside tagging and ringing and cows just this week - mostly for flies but should also help to keep the ticks down. They’re becoming a growing problem due to milder winters and too many trees around me, so I think it’s worth the cost. [/QUOTE]
