Farnam Equi-Spot Horse Spot-On Fly Control

This stuff works great! It sure beats spraying my horses every day. One application every two weeks and I'm done. The cost is reasonable for me with only two horses.

Don’t waste your money. Didn’t even last a day and the horses acted like it bothered them going on next morning flies where back in full force . As always with chewy shipping was fast and reliable. Too bad the product sucked.

I apply every 14 days and my horses have no flies not even the horse flies bother them!

Beats spraying everyday esp since I'm not sure they get sprayed. This seems to work

It doesn't seem to repel much of anything, but we'll see. If it works on ticks that would be enough for me to keep using.

Have used for years and was so nice to order it from home

I've actually waited quite a while before giving my review so I can actually attest to whether or not this works for us. Every horse owner hates fly season—with good reason—it seems like there's not a sufficient solution to keep your ponies from being chewed up. My Brody is a fly & tick magnet. For a draft, he has crazy sensitive skin and he's definitely allergic to mites and gnats to the point of becoming near hairless. Equi-spot has been PERFECT for midges, gnats, mites, and anything nearly invisible that's definitely biting him. It's also amazing at repelling ticks. I used to have to dig ticks out of his tail all the time but he hasn't had a single tick since I've used this.

I've found that I have to supplement with a strong spray and then rotate to something that's strong on mosquitos the season after that. But this definitely takes care of no no see ums and the like quite well and the price is great. I also seem to have to reapply every 10 days (at best) it never makes 14 days. Even still... it's totally worth the price. … more

I just moved to western Tennessee and the ticks are just horrible. The walkers had ticks constantly from the pasture. I’ve used a few different sprays and they help with flies but don’t stop the ticks. This really works. I followed the new application instructions and put a little more where I alway find the ticks on the bottom of the cheeks, groin area and legs. I have found a few husks of dead ticks that just fall off and haven’t seen any live ones. Going on week 3 now so I’m very impressed. Even through the swampy days when they are drenched in sweat they are still tick free. I give this product a 4 for 2 reasons. First, The fly control is nonexistent in a few days.

I Have better luck with sprays for flies. Second, I tried this product a couple years ago for fly control and one horse had an allergic reaction. Started rubbing application area on anything he could, rolling and just very agitated for about 30-45 mins. With the new application procedure he has no reaction. … more

I'll admit I was skeptical! For the price though I figured I'd give it a try. I applied exactly as directed on my 2 horses. The box says it lasts up to 2 weeks. I was excited to see it start working immediately! On my horses it lasted about 1 week which is still awesome to me! Especially happy it worked for my gelding who doesn't like his ears messed with and won't keep a mask on. The only con is that your horses have oil dots all over them from the application. But it's really not a con if you're helping your babies feel better

Works great to get rid of flies my horses are always irrataded and i love this gives them relief
