Firstly, what's the usual mixing for use on horses and which product is it? There are a few similar on the website.

And I know we can use it but is it which is most effective for us, and is it better mixed like for the horses? :)
Or what else is a good fly/midge repellent for humans?

I keep asking this question and would love an answer.
How often do you all apply it. I started using it in the hot spell and am amazed how good it is. I spray them every other day. Is this necessary or is it effective for longer than that.

Will use some on the horses too :)

I've just bought two bottles from EBay and have used it successfully undiluted for the past two years. I sometimes add it to my home made fly spray too.

What about on warm days, tho? Don't you risk the horse burning, especially pink skinned ones? So far I've used it as oil to remove mud fever scabs only. Fabulous on feathers for getting them clean and he now smells nice!

I use Shoo fly as fly spray, seems effective as a fly dropped down from the horse as I was applying it.
