Dominator (pirmiphos methyl) tags were placed in a herd of 57 cows and two bulls on 6 May. Rotator (pirimphos methyl) tags were placed in a herd of 30 cows and one bull on 7 May. Cutter Blue (fenthion) tags were placed in a herd of 48 cows and one bull on 8 May. An untreated herd of 30 cows and one bull was located in Clarke County. All tags remained in herds for 140 d.
