More Fly Fixes
Essential products to keep your horse protected from pests, head to hoof.

Flies aren’t just a nuisance—they can cause stress, skin irritation, and transmit disease. The right fly control products can help keep your horse comfortable and healthy all season long.

Be Gone, Bugs!

Flies aren’t just annoying, they can cause stress, discomfort, and even spread harmful diseases. The Equinavia Brisk Fly Sheet ($79.99; equinavia.com) offers effective, full-body protection during peak fly season. Its breathable micro-mesh fabric acts as a barrier against biting insects while allowing air to circulate, helping prevent irritation and overheating. The extended drop, tail flap, and secure fit offer full-coverage protection, so your horse can enjoy turnout without constant swishing and stomping. And the detachable neck cover is easy to add or remove as needed, offering targeted protection when flies are at their worst. 

Smart Fly Defense

This water-based formula works differently from traditional fly sprays by disrupting the insects’ homing systems stopping bugs before they bite. $37.87; absorbine.com.

Fly Control Feed

When fed daily, this fly control helps to break the fly life cycle by preventing fly larvae from developing in your horse’s manure. Starting at $29.45; farnam.com.

Protect His Legs

These breathable mesh boots shield legs from biting flies and botflies, reduce stomping-related stress, and stay in place. $53.99; shooflyleggins.com.
