FEEDING OPERATIONS <br /> We use different types of hay and Stable Mix pellets for our horses. Horses on pasture will <br /> graze as well as have hay. If the owners want to add to this, they provide their own <br /> supplements and grain. <br /> VECTOR CONTROL <br /> As stated before, our pastures are dragged weekly to break up manure,which breaks the fly <br /> larvae cycle. We also clean all paddocks daily. The manure pile is continuously disposed of <br /> during the year. Rodents are controlled by our 6 cats. We do not poison the rodents to protect <br /> the hawks, owls and other predatory birds on our ranch and also our cats. Occasionally we <br /> uses squirrel and gopher bait with a special probe that goes into their tunnels. We are also <br /> using gopher traps. We also have Bat houses to encourage our bat population to stay and <br /> continue eating insects. <br /> We do not use a pest control service. <br /> Simon Tosh-Robb <br /> Manager <br /> Mar Val Stables <br /> 209-607-0156 <br />
