It kills tons of flies in a hurry.<br /><br />I get the one that's the 3rd from the left in this picture.<br /><br />http://www.bayerdvm.com/products/quick-bayt/quick-bayt.cfm<br /><br />Because it's a spot spray, I make it a cup at a time. 1 cup water to 3 tbsp. of powder.<br /><br />Then I use spray it on top of an empty paper feed bag. Put them at the entrances to the barns and within minutes, lots of dead flies. <br /><br />I use to buy the bottle that you just add water to. But with the one mentioned above you get a lot more for your money in the long run.<br /><br />http://msredneck.blogspot.com/2009/06/only-good-fly.htmlThe JRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10860982258621823529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1968635299818268431.post-77391926414356142922009-05-23T16:45:33.432-07:002009-05-23T16:45:33.432-07:00That last fly mask is too funny!

I had a bad experience a year ago, he wore one for a day then began shaking his head and was really irritated. So I took it off and the problem went away. Then, I tried it again a few weeks later and the same thing happened! The vet thought it was the fly mask. Something about it was bothering him, although I couldn't find anything for the life of me. Anyway,I should try it again this summer....Pony Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02464088874054923635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1968635299818268431.post-21459010782950851932009-05-22T22:22:03.451-07:002009-05-22T22:22:03.451-07:00I hope the other horses won't make fun of him.I hope the other horses won't make fun of him.Blackfeatherfarmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03546615932272805349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1968635299818268431.post-4672559603794805922009-05-22T16:30:58.183-07:002009-05-22T16:30:58.183-07:00Being I know nothing about horses I learned someth...Being I know nothing about horses I learned something today. How cool is that! Cowgirl, you are a blessing to all your animals as I am sure you feel they are to you. The way you care for them is an example to all. Fly masks!

I did see that one in VV and wondered if it was good or not. My mares would be fine in one. I'm tired of rubbing medication every morning on their ears before they go out and we leave the hair in their ears to help protect them. Problem is when we put the pink stuff (clear is always sold out)in there it smashes the hair down and defeats the purpose....so mine have pink bunny ears too just with the medication instead!

Our aussie is 11 months and has barked her head off at them in disguises; guess she doesn't remember last summer.Angie @ thejunkranch https://www.blogger.com/profile/16378799206313610380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1968635299818268431.post-90454390645532613902009-05-21T08:04:52.451-07:002009-05-21T08:04:52.451-07:00Oh I remember these well - we never had to use the...Oh I remember these well - we never had to use them back east - but when we moved to CA and then to AZ - the flies were wicked - it will make them happier in the long run!!

We also have a problem with flies because our neck of the woods is noted for chicken houses and they do draw the flies. We have an automatic spritzer in our house that works pretty well but outside...yuk! I think the world would be much better off without flies, bugs, spiders, worms and I could go on and on.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1968635299818268431.post-3310540567622441802009-05-21T01:46:44.695-07:002009-05-21T01:46:44.695-07:00I hear you on the flies!

That is so great!<br />Brandy has to wear a fly mask all the time in the summer, she gets reactions to flies, and her eye will swell up huge! <br />We bought fly predators this year. Don't know if they will work. Thought we'd try it.
