RE: more about garlic

I used it with my DWB gelding last summer. He had less flies around him than
the other "garlicless" horses. No prove, but striking.
The only disadvantage is the smell of his breath. And if its not working
against flies, it works as repellent against unauthorised persons in the
pasture!
