western iowa,by Denison | we have been spraying with syrup-then tarping-with tire rings-I think the syrup is so nasty the animals have left the tarp alone-and the plastic sticks to the syrup like a glue rat trap-the green heavy tarp is expensive and the gravel in the bag is always ending up with holes-I did stop one day by a guy and he use's fine sand to cover his tarp-has always just feed the sand along with the silage
on corn silage the syrup has been working very well-you just need to coat it a couple of times a couple weeks apart-when the top drys out is when you get spoilage-if you look underneath a tarp-it is usually moist and not dryed out-the syrup acts the same way-we really like to syrup with in 12 hours of packin-seems like it seals it from evaporation-then 10-14 days later another coat
