Too little time, too much to read.
Great. Spring is here and the horses have gone in the summer fields.
Came to my lad today and he had a swollen sheath due to having several black flies stuck to it sucking his blood
I tried lots of things last year to try and put them off biting him there without much success
I left him with neem on it today but it was only partially successful last year
I don't want to rug him because he isn't bothered too much by flies anywhere else, just on his sheath.
What has anyone found to work? I know the black fly season is short but they are nasty while it lasts.
