Which fly spray will you choose this season?

Fly season is just around the corner. But which product suits your horse and your routine best? We put three popular sprays side by side.

The most affordable option and the only one that also repels ticks. UltraCruz works with peppermint oil and clove extract, no pesticides, no harsh chemicals. Simply spray, massage in and you are done. Available in multiple sizes. And it smells wonderful!

This natural insect-repelling spray keeps flies and other pesky insects at bay. The oil-based formula bonds well to the coat, giving it an extra long-lasting effect. Perfect for training, turnout and competition.

Rather than simply repelling insects, ProScent neutralises your horse's sweat odour, which is what attracts them in the first place. With lemon eucalyptus, lavender and tea tree, it also helps to keep the coat in good condition.

Looking for the most affordable option or need tick protection too? Go for UltraCruz. Want extra-long protection thanks to an oil-based formula? The Stübben F** Off is your pick. Does your horse have sensitive skin or do you want to care for the coat at the same time? Then Cavalor ProScent is your best match.

Do you ever find yourself needing an extra tail during fly season?

We have extra-beautiful, top-quality Western cowboy shuflies, handmade in the U.S. from real horsehair. Attach the Shufly to the center of your girth to keep flies away from your horse’s belly and front legs. Because it’s made from natural horse tail hair, it feels familiar to almost all horses when worn.

You can also simply spray the Shufly with fly repellent, and it will release a neutralizing scent as your horse moves.

If this is new for your horse, practice with it on the lunge line first.

Enjoy a fly-free summer!
