Good god does it smell

It does not smell like "fly spray" at all. Doesnt smell to good really

But keeps the flies a million miles away. Deffinately recomend it

 

[BarmyCharmy]

Its fab stuff!!!

 

[Harriett310]

I hated the smell and it never worked on my horses!

 

[deicinmerlyn]

It's the only fly spray that I have found worth buying but it does stink!

 

[AlexThe Arab]

Tried it once last year - didn't work and the smell made me feel ill

 

[mjb226]

its brilliant so long as you can deal with the smell!

 

[neddynesbitt]

fantastic stuff, I agree it stinks but it works so what the heck

 

[horseriderdeb]

Didn't work on mine. Only one I found works is deosect and that really smells

 

[Jane_Lou]

Its the only stuff I have found that works, I turn out on my way to work and boy did I stink the morning I didn't bother with jeans and teeshirt and liberally applied it to 2 horses while wearing my suit

 

[merlinsquest]

Merlin was crawling with flies this afternoon and really distressed..... I didnt rate the stuff before now, but it shifted all the buggers onto the other horse in the field

So I sprayed him too

I think it smells like fuel.

It probs is, but it works

 

[Cloud9]

I am another fan-never use anythign else now = they also do it in a gel form to put on with a sponge. Some say it can cause a bad skin reaction - my horse had reactions to another well known make but defintely not with this one.

 

[Slinkyunicorn]

Does it contain DEET?

 

[Tiarella]

I dont think so.

It does contain... geranium oil, pennyroyal-oil, oil of juniper though

It is amazing

Love love love it!

 

[Bosworth]

its fantastic. Only one I find that works. all the others seem to act more like I am basting the horses ready to cook. No wonder the flies still attack

 

[dorani]

An Australian vet once advised a mix of kerosene(paraffin) and water applied with a cloth.Didn't work, smelt vile.

 

[Thunderbirds R Gone]

i've used it - fab stuff!!

 

[Ottinmeg]

This is the only one i have found that works. need to get some more actually!

 

[Tharg]

leovet power phaser

 

[SonnysHumanSlave]

I'll have to try that i think!! its looks like some sort of industrial strength product

 

[scotsmare]

I have this and love it - don't use anything else now.

 

[Pep12]

I used to use it as it is good but my oh so sensitive boy decided to become allergic to it. Now use Fly away citronella free stuff and it is every bit as good but also smells vile.

 

[Northhorse]

Fantastic stuff - I sprayed my mare and the flies fell to the ground stunned!!
The smell is awful though - I can ride when she's sprayed 'cos it makes me feel sick!

 

[SirenaXVI]

Echo - get a timed out - would love to have a fly spray that actually works!

 

[PurplePickle]

[Sparklet]

Doesnt work on horse flies....my horse was blathered in the stuff at the weekend and was still bitten to bits.

Yes.

Several of the Equimins ones have the same actives - don't know whether they smell any better...
