@wendyp4545@realDonaldTrump@SecRollins She started ramping up fly production and kept the border closed for livestock. She is also hiring more border riders. That’s about all she can do for now. It’s up to the states livestock officers to keep a close eye on things.
We’ve dealt with this before it’s all good.
Ivermectin, blue coat, pyrethrum spray, keep your corrals as clean as possible and spray for flys. It’s the baby calves that are my biggest concerns but my cows calve in large pastures so flys aren’t a major concern. We just have to spend more time with our cattle like our grandparents did.
@iheartmindy Yep. My great uncle was in charge of the nuclear test site and he said there has been earthquakes before they were testing. He told me that because there was a protest back in the 80s about the earthquakes.
Just stop trying to freak people out. It’s not that big of a deal. We have the tools to deal with this and as soon as the sterile fly production is in full steam it’s a non issue. Just support Sec Rollins and let her get the fly program ramped up and then put pressure on Congress to make sure it’s funded for a long time
Just stop. The sterile fly only works in the presents of flys. Their lifespan is about 14 days so unless the bad fly is present it doesn’t matter. It’s a Mexico problem right now so there is not much we can do until there is a verifiable case in America. It’s a waste to just let them go Willy Nilly.
I thought you were a rancher. What kind of crap are you spewing?
Sounded like you did by dogging DOGE.
The fly program absolutely ended under Obama. The weather patterns and cattle movement have far more to do with the movement of these flys. We had them pushed back to Panama. So now that we had all of these illegals coming from the Darian gap and the illegal transportation of cattle from central and South America plus favorable weather for the flys to survive they are back on our borders. A fly has a very limited range so it has to move on people or livestock. Unless some nefarious entity smuggled them up.
@TheCalvinCooli1 Tim just give Sec Rollins all the support she needs to help us ranchers and we’ll be just fine. We’ve handled it in the past and we will again
