Best Answer

It was invented as a low-tech way to rid dairy cattle of buffalo flies. Buffalo flies are a serious problem in dairy cattle. Hundreds of flies bite each cow every day, causing irritation and lowering milk production. The cows develop sores and injure themselves as they scratch them by rubbing against trees and fences. Pesticides to control the flies are expensive and harmful to the environment.
