Take Our Poll: What’s the Hardest Part of Fly Control During Riding Season?

This fly control poll is part of our Fly Control Awareness Month brought to you by Absorbine.

Fly season is more than just an annoyance—it can disrupt training sessions, affect your horse’s comfort, and create challenges around the barn. From ineffective fly sprays to flies swarming stalls, barns, and water sources, fly control becomes a top priority for horse owners each summer.

Every horse and facility faces different fly-related issues, and the key to effective control often starts with identifying your biggest challenge. Whether you’re battling bugs during training rides or struggling to keep them out of the barn, understanding your specific needs helps you choose the right prevention methods and products.

Take our Gallop Fly Control Poll and tell us how you battle the bugs in summer!
