Spinosad is a powerful insect control solution that is effective in managing various pests such as house flies, stable flies, darkling beetles, and hide beetles in and around livestock premises. To combat flies, a mixture of 2 oz. in 10 gallons of water can provide coverage for 5,000 to 10,000 sq. ft., with the application needing to be repeated every 7-10 days as necessary. For Northern Fowl Mites, a mixture of 3 oz. in 10 gallons of water is recommended, with a focus on spraying birds, especially in the vent area and floors, and repeating the treatment every 14 days. In the case of Poultry Red Mites, a mixture of 2 oz. in 5 gallons of water is advised to treat 2,500 sq.ft., with a particular emphasis on spraying roosts and floors, paying close attention to cracks and crevices where these pests may hide. With its effectiveness in controlling a variety of pests, Spinosad is a valuable tool for livestock owners seeking to maintain a clean and healthy environment for their animals.
