Effect of cattle breed and flucythrinate-impregnated ear tags on horn fly (Diptera: Muscidae) control on yearling heifers

Horn fly Haematobia irritans (L.) counts were reduced 96-97% when Angus x Hereford (A x H) and Brahman x Hereford (B x H) yearling heifers were tagged with flucythrinate-impregnated ear tags.
