Does anybody have an opinion on this? If so, is it any good? And if it is, when is best to start feeding it?
Thanks in advance.

I'm afraid I've been there, done it, got the T-shirt, DVD, mug, and bra-and-knickers-set to match with expensive supplements over the years!!!
My trad-lad has sweet itch, and he has: Brewers Yeast, Micronised Linseed, teaspoon of Cider Vinegar and when the sweet itch season is active I give him Clivers (sticky stuff, grows in hedges).
Because he's got sweet itch, I avoid garlic.
The most effective thing you can do to guard against flies is to cover the horse up, first and foremost, and/or make the coat unattractive to flies, either from inside out, or outside in, if that makes sense.
But shall watch this thread with interest.

Oh that's great news 
Am trialling as many things as possible to make him comfortable, but I don't want to waste my money!!
A few days without the SI rug sounds awesome, I felt so sorry for him last summer, literally was in it from March-October and looked like this:
Poor lad, like an equine Power Ranger! Just want him to be able to have a good proper roll with no rug on!
I don't suppose anybody knows what the dates are like on the supplement? Would like to buy now but don't want it out by the time I need it!
