Take Our Poll: What’s Your Go-To Fly Control Method?

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

Fly season will be on us before we know it, and the battle begins. Every horse owner knows the struggle of keeping your four-legged friend comfortable and fly-free, whether you use one line of defense or have an entire army at the ready. We want to know: what’s your go-to for keeping the bugs at bay? From sprays to sheets and everything in between, tell us how you fight the fly battle at your barn.

Fly season can turn a peaceful summer ride into a miserable outing for both you and your horse. What are your go-to methods to beat the bugs? Alena AV/adobe.stock.com

Take our Gallop Fly Control Poll and give us your go-to fly control method!
