[RC] Fly Repellants - Kitley, Carrie E Civ USAF AFSPC 30 MDSS/SGSLFI know this is a small thing and probably been brought up 1000 times before I joined, but (to get off the BLM/wild horses, non-endurance subject, lol) I'm wondering what people find is the best product for repelling flies. And has anyone ever used those equine bio-spot products with any success? My Senior Citizen gets scabby legs from fly bites and I'd like to fine something that really works for longer than 10 mins. :) Also, has anyone heard what the smoke/particulate content is in the Santa Cruz area. Fireworks ride is coming up Aug. 2nd. :) A little irony in the ride name there. lol Carrie Kitley 30th Medical Group, Vandenberg AFB DMLSS?Database Sustainment Specialist (DSS) CACI?International Inc? www.caci.com dsn?276-1077, Comm (805) 606-1077 fax dsn?276-1179 <\_~ // \\ carrie.kitley@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx? -----Original Message----- From: ridecamp-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:ridecamp-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Cindy Collins Sent: Thursday, July 17, 2008 1:17 PM To: Ridecamp Subject: [RC] re: question on using DMSO sweat wrap I was very interested in the thread on what folks use post-ride. I tend to be minimalist, too. However, somewhere in the thread there was a discussion on DMSO/furacin sweats for injury and someone said something about only leaving it on for a brief time period...a few hours, I think. Anyhow, my very experienced equine vet always recommends ice, then a DMSO/furacin sweat for a serious injury and says to leave it on for 48 hours. So, I'm interested in hearing more from the RC vets about this topic. Thanks.
