Personal experience…
enjoy the summer!
Fly predators: WORKS LIKE A CHARM! It blew my mind how much they reduced our fly population! Plus, they are one of the only things that beats out the green heads and horse flies!
Ultrashield and Pyranha fly sprays are great too! I like the UltraShield only because it seems a little gentler on my horse’s skin, and he HATES the aerosol spray!
Crusader fly masks with ears are the only fly masks I will ever buy! Fabulous product!
While those are nice fly sheets, I have a bias towards Horseware Ireland and bought my horse the Rambo Fly buster vamoose with no-fly zone.
Does this work for dogs also?
