Horse Parasite & Fly Repellent

How Do I know When to Protect My Horse from Parasites and Flies

Horse Flies and parasites can be more than just irritating for your horse, they can cause real health problems which are uncomfortable and damaging for their wellbeing. Using fly spray for horses can help protect your horse from diseases and illness such as Lyme Disease which can be caused from parasites. To know if your horse has flies or parasites their behaviour will change, such as stomping, swatting their tail, flicking their ears, shifting from foot to foot, body twitches, or moving their head to one of their limbs and nodding. These changes in your horse’s behaviour can be obvious signs to help you know when to treat them with horse fly spray.
