Dairy Cattle

Introduction

Milk and milk products are important constituents of the human diet.
 

High standards of dairy sanitation are required; milking parlors and manure handling procedures are subject to inspection by health officials.
 

Inspectors equate the presence of flies with unsanitary operations so the need for a high degree of fly control in dairy operations is obvious.

Flies can pose a serious health hazard to both animals and humans, and have a significant impact on animal productivity.
