NEWI
Are you currently bedding with corn stalks? Is there mold in it?
We used to have a stalk bedding pack outside in cowyard and sand bedding in barn and would have flare ups through the winter months. Our ave was about 100-150 then. We have gone away from sand and went to mayo mats with no bedding - just scrape stalls 3x a day. We are currently 50 or under- so it can be done without sand.
If you are willing to use quater milkers they will save scc big time and help keep cows for a long time.

And I may be the oddball out here but I will suggest using some homeopathic stuff. We use Excell 2000 and it has saved many cows. Also giving 40cc of vit c by the tail will help fight mast.
I will include a pic cause when I tell people I usually get the rolling eye thing and "sure ya do"
