The Summer Flea Problem

 

 Fleas love warm weather.  This summer they seem to be especially bad, infesting lawns and landscaping areas.  They eventually make their way into our homes, mainly through pets and our shoes.  A good control program involves treating the yard, pets and the inside of our homes.  Following are a few suggestions:

 

The Yard……..Cyonara Insect Spray (hose sprayer) 

                        Adams Yard Spray (hose sprayer) 

                        Permethrin 38% Conc (for mixing)

Your Pet….....Monthly Flea Pill  

                       Topical drops (Frontline) 

                       Adams Flea Spray ​​​​​​ 

                       Adams Flea Collar

The House…….Flea Foggers (canister to set off)   

                         Carpet Powder     

                         Demon Spray 

                         Adams Flea Spray

 

Exclusive Pet Food

 

Don’t forget about our store brand of  premium dog and cat food…..Exclusive.  This line is formulated without any corn, wheat or soy.  The #1 ingredient is either chicken or lamb.  Use our frequent purchase program that nets you a free bag once you have purchased 8!

 

Mineral with IGR

 

This is the time of the year when cattle need mineral.  Grass is deficient in mineral content and cattle will readily consume salt and mineral.  It is the perfect opportunity to add IGR Fly Control to your mineral, either bag or tub form.  The IGR (Altosid) is passed through the cow to each manure pile.  Horn flies lay their eggs in fresh manure.  The eggs hatch into larve and the Altosid kills the fly larve.  As previously mentioned, IGR horn fly control is available in molasses tubs and Wind n Rain bagged mineral.

 

Summer Nutrition Support

 

 Deer have huge nutrition demand during the summer.  Bucks are growing and building antler mass and Does are nursing fawns.  Forages that are desirable to deer are maturing and don’t supply the needed nutrients.  Most land owners are supplementing deer with Antlermax, Purina’s state of the art deer supplement.  Antlermax Deer 20 contains bypass protein and the proprietary mineral package to maximize antler growth and maintain excellent body condition on nursing does.  We are always glad to answer any questions about the Antlermax program.

 

Brood cows are at the peak of their production cycle during the summer months.  Most are nursing a spring calf and also going through the rebreeding process.  Grass quality will always depend on moisture and soil fertility.  Typically grass quality begins to decline from July 1st on through the rest of the summer.  Our best recommendation to supplement cows is to use Accuration Liquid 32-10 or Accuration Hi-Fat tubs.  Both contain IM technology from Purina to maximize forage digestibility and maintain good body condition on cows.  Drop by the store and we can explain the costs involved and the expected return from using IM Technology. 

 

We appreciate your continued support and are always available to answer any questions you may have about any of the products or services we offer.
