"spot on" type fly repellant - was Re: [RC] Cremello's - Rosalie MarleyI used a similar product, at strategic spots on the horses' legs and toplines - but only on my non-riding horses, as I was afraid it would be a problem under a saddle. Am I over-thinking this? What are other people's experiences? The product I used was oily. It was effective but attracted lots of dirt (which showed up on my grey and white-patterened horses).

I have had great success for the last two years using nothing but "Freedom Spot On". It's like Advantage or Frontline. A little tube of oil, strategically placed on the horse's body (where they are most succeptable) here and there. Once every two weeks. Never use fly spray. Actually ends up being cheaper when I buy it on sale at Petsmart, and much less work! And works even when the horse sweats because it's not topical. :) Dawn Rosalie Marley Ride the Tiger! http://TigerHorseFarms.com __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
