I have a mosquito hat with the veil. Should have put that on. The bug spray I put on they laughed about.

We use either the apple cider vinegar and water or avon's skin so soft they both help bunches.

mix the two in the right proportions and you have one of the best fly sprays for horses. Stays on long Smells good too.

It was a crack up when my friend Mule Mary would ride her mule Jeep by and you could smell a cloud of skin so soft on him....

Back when we had horses..... I tried so many natural and safe bug sprays on the horses... HA!!! I finally went to strong chemical repellants. I just felt so bad for the boys, the bugs loved their delicate groin areas, and then ears and eyes. The strong chemical stuff worked like a charm.


I do still have left over from the horses some herbal horse care stuff that I adore... And still use, on the poultry, and now on the goats. The stuff is magic.

I can't say enough about their stuff. It can make any would, fungal, rot, nasty, get all gorgeous and purty again. One of the goats we got had a dry skin, very thin hair spot on the back of her neck. I sprayed it once, and then forgot to look at it or treat it again. Yep! By the time I remembered, yep! All gone!

There have several different things.. Like one specifically for regular wounds, a different one for rain rot etc.

Anyway, all of there stuff rocks... I am not sure why more people do not know about them and use them.

Oooh me likey.... Katee has a belly that looks like leather..... Sweet itch she got at a boarding stable..... Poor girl will put her belly over her feed bowl and rock back and forth.... and If I didnt give her the feed bowl.... she would lay with her front legs out and rock back and forth itching on the sand in her paddock. Nothing i tried ever worked. EVen went through the vet and got antihistimens Were talking the horse version of Benydril fed by the spoonfull to the tune of eighty bucks a tub. didnt work.

So I moved her from the boarding facility.... but the damage was done... the itching became habit.

I was considering getting her a belly Dickey.



originally developed for drafts see the pocket of screen covering his privates. Its like a flysheet for the belly.

Thanks for the reminder. I need to go out soon and spray the goats down. I use a 14 day horse formula (smells great) combed into their fur and then every month they get Frontline for the ticks.
