RE: Fly Collars

["Snodgrass, Bonnie" <snodgrab@ncr.disa.mil>]

I tried one on my youngster that won't leave a fly mask on. The collar has a
thin piece of cork inside that is soaked with oil of citronella and
cedarwood. It worked pretty well for about 2 weeks. I tried to resoak the
cork but wasn't really successful. It only works for the pol, ear and eye
area. May as well use a good fly mask if your horse will leave it on!!!

So how many of you are actually using these?

What do you think of them?  Do they work?

I hate fly spray and am trying to decide on the best course of action.

thanks!
