Animals produce less meat and milk if lice are unchecked. \ oung animals and poorly-nour- ished old animals suffer most from lice. The winter season is the time lice are bad on cattle. The louse popula- । tion builds up then. Dr. Harold Gunderson, extension entomologist at Iowa Mate college, says one louse unchecked tn fall means 1,000 the following March. For lice control on cattle. DDT is being used successfully. Early in fall, before cold weather arrives, it is mixed with water and sprayed on the animals. After cold weather ; comes, a DDT dust is recommended. Farmers are being advised to use a dust containing 10 per cent DDT. Some of the powdered louse killers on the market contain less than 10 per cent DDT. but have other ef fective insecticides combined with the DDT. The rotenone dusts recommended for cattle grub control can be used for lice control. Usually they are diluted for lice, to cover greater area and reduce the cost. For in stance. one pound of a cattle grub dust containing m per cent rote- I none can be mixed with two pounds of flour to make an effective louse killer.
