Re: [RC] bugs - Ibiteraaarr

Susan,
Our horses are pasture dwellers also and I'm in south Louisiana so we've had 
probs with mosquitos and face gnats. I don't know about a fly mask with 
repellent in it, but the absorbine bonnets with the ears do really well. They 
hold up nicely and the boys don't seem to mind them. For repellent, we use 
Miracle Coat. It's inexpensive, non-toxic, environmentally friendly and long 
lasting. It's waterbased, so it won't stay on with rain, but showers tend to 
curtail fly problems. We also implement SWAT for areas like sheaths, faces and 
ears. It runs around $7 here for a small little jar, but a little goes a long 
way.

Liz
