About the first thing to start growing in the spring. Just turn the heifers (or dry cows) out for a few days when things first start to green up. Heifers will eat them off before the milking cows get to them.

Out here in Oregon they smell and taste like Garlic. Make really good fried onion cakes.

I spray with round up before the bermuda grass starts growing and it gets them.

Just one little wild onion in a dairy bulk tank and you've lost the whole works. BTDT

Probably 15 yrs or so ago now our Chief Counsel, who at the time had a few cows, including a couple milk cows, brought a bushel of onions to work--not wild ones, but commercially grown yellow ones, like you'd cook with--saying a container full had been dropped down on the docks, and he'd gotten a couple pickup loads to feed to his cows, that they loved 'em. Said you couldn't taste 'em in the milk...are the wild ones that much stronger??

I had about 10 bales filled full of the wild onion stands. Although you couldn't really smell it through the clover, i've seen my cows "wince" and sort of spit it out with their tongues. Kinda funny.
