With this dry warm weather my cows this week have literally started rubbing like crazy. Bald patches on there necks and topline. There were only a couple when i saw them last weekend. Today i must have seen about 12 with baldness, some quite large patches too. It isnt them moulting it is definitely lice. I ordered some wormer which also covers biting lice on monday from our feed supplier and it was delivered this morning. So todays job was treating all cows.
I know @Jessey you said hank used to get them previous.

Yep I've been on the look out for a couple of weeks but none spotted yet. I had to go and clip my friends new pony last week as he was absolutely riddled and they just couldn't effectively treat them with full shetland fluff.
