They ate what?? Should I be worried??

[damummis]

The stinking goats ate the fly strip, with flies, that was hanging in the barn. Should I be worried?

 

[ThreeBoysChicks]

Do you have any of the packaging and does it have a warning or what to do if swallowed?

 

[julieq]

Do you have another strip you can look at and see what the ingredients are? I think they're all fairly nontoxic.

 

[freemotion]

I'm pretty sure they are non-toxic, just glue on wax paper. It would be the tack that holds it to the ceiling that would make me nervous.

Amazing what they will eat! I would just keep an eye on them. I am pretty sure those things aren't toxic. Mine ate the temperature sensor on the digital thermometer. I think they were sick of getting it up the bum!

 

[DonnaBelle]

Well, they can't be too toxic. My Maggie ate four of them last week, the fly strip and it's container!!

Well...makes me glad for small goats

I think most fly strips are just wax paper and glue along with an attractant. Shouldn't be harmful...though I would check the label on another container just to be sure.

Umm, never mind, I found it. Stuck to Daisy's belly all squished up.

Silly goats.

2 of my bucks somehow managed to get one of those giant fly rolls (1' x 8', stapled to the wall) that I stuck up wayyy high in their barn. They must have really reached up reach it, I put it as high as I could reach.

I found it shredded in their pen the next day.

I have gotten stuck to those things in the past, and it doesn't feel good getting 'unstuck'...and I'm not nearly as hairy as they are.

GOATS!
