I remember when i loved the sight of a dead deer in the back of my truck but after our first two years of deer farming losing 1/3 of our deer the first year and well on our way to that our second year its not a welcome sight so much anymore
 
I am so sorry. This is my first year,and I am scared to death too.

I can not imagine what is like for you. I wish you the best of luck.
 
Remi i love deer farming ,dont get me wrong i try not to get attached to them but its hard and even harder to watch them die but its all worth it as you watch the survivors grow up!
 
I can't stress it enough, get a ulv fogger and you can stop this EHD. I was getting as many as 5 deer a day getting it at one point until I started fogging, NOT ONE more case since. Again, I found the stagnant water sources and fogged it several times during the heat of the day when I think the bugs are in the cattails and mud, and the pens every morning and evening. I also mix Tempo in for some residual. A sprayer is a waste of time and money, the ulv fogger atomizes a straight oil based chemical, no diluted water mix, it seriously looks like smoke and will hang in the air for a long time and drift for several hundred yards and hit EVERY BUG IN THE AREA if you have a light breeze. Stop the midge and stop the EHD. If anyone has any questions,feel free to give me a call anytime. At one point I fugured I was going to loose every deer I had. There is no worse feeling then having years worth of hard work and your favorite "family" members dieing and thinking there is nothing you can do and there is also no better feeling then making it stop. Good luck.

I ordered a fogger today but they are back ordered till next. Week Cody and Mick what mixtures are u using
 
Cloudy, I use permanone which is a chemical that is also sold by adapco, it is an oil based 10 %permethrin PBO mix, I also mix Tempo in with my mix, it's a safe pesticide that will stay on plants or whatever it lands on until it gets washed of or dusted out in our case as we are soooo dry. I found the stagnant water sources and fogged the heck out of them morning, noon and evening along with the pens the first few days and then the pens morning and evening. I really think this midge goes back to the water source during the heat of the day and if you have a nice easy breeze and you can smoke all the vegetation, cattails and even the mud during the heat of the day, you'll hit most of the bugs. I really think there is only a super small percent of the midges that actually carry EHD so your odds of hitting the ones with it with a fogger are great. I tried a sprayer for 2 years hoping it was doing something but until you see one of these work, you'll never use the sprayer again for bug control. I am planning on using it on my farm next year starting early in hopes it never gets a start. Luckily we haven't found any dead on my farm which is 20 miles from my deer enclosure, last year it was bad a both places and all across the state and now this year its really bad in the south eastern part of the state, ya never know. Good luck and if you have any questions, feel free to give me a holllar.
