Fly Control for Horses

Flies can be pests. They not only bother people and pets, but they also bother livestock including horses, cows, donkeys, alpacas and more. If you own a horse then it’s very important to make sure you have adequate fly spray for your horse. Before shopping for spray, talk to your vet to find out if he has any specific recommendations. If you’re looking for all natural, check your grain store and livestock stores and check online at horse outlet stores and horse suppliers. Most horses will do well with a regular spray that is water and sweat resistant and has a lifespan of about 14 days. This means you don’t have to spray it on every day as it won’t wear off or wash off. Look for sprays that treat gnats, stable flies, mosquitoes, black flies, and ticks. These will be the best bet for an all around fly spray. Ask your veterinarian Mt. Airy, MD for help as well.
