I am looking for a natural remedy as apposed to Ivermectin or another chemical to rid cattle of lice. I have searched in books and on the internet for a natural treatment but have not found any information. Does anyone know of a successful alternative treatment?

I am also interested in this topic. My Dad and I currently have fullblood Maine-Anjou and they just don't seem to have any of the characteristics that Gearld Frye, etc. indicate are best for grassfed. We also are not crazy about black cattle as summers here are pretty rough. I spoke with a breeder of mini-herefords out in west Texas, but I just can't get myself to use frame 0 or frame 1 cattle. That just seems entirely too small. We bred some of our heifers this year using the Rotokawa 982 Devon semen. Interested in seeing how the calves come out this fall.
