"I find this spray to be the most effective one I use. With WNV rampant in Texas, this has been a life saver for us. I living by a lake as well, this works! I think it kills just about every other annoying insect my horses encounter, too!"

"This the only fly spray I've found that actually works. With the mild winter last year our fly population was awful this spring, summer and fall. I won't say it provides protection for 2 weeks but it does provide instant relief which lasts for several hours. Any other products I've used, flies reappeared and were biting within minutes."

"This summer, the mosquitoes were a problem for my horse. The usual fly sprays were just not getting the job done and giving him relief from mosquito bites. After reading reviews, I decided to give the Mosquito Halt a try. It definitely did help to repel the bugs initially and gave him more relief but didn't last as long as the product's labeling stated. Still, I'd recommend it, as it worked better than most other insect repellants. The fragrance isn't too bad but be careful to stand clear of the spray vapor when using the product. It is strong!"

"Before we moved to SC, we had a much bigger problem with bugs. Having experimented with many brands of fly spray, this one seemed to work well with flies and mosquitos about the best. Here there is more of a gnat problem. Honestly, most brands' claims to duration of effectiveness is laughable; our experience is that none work as long as advertised. We apply before a ride, or the farrier, or as needed. This spray does well overall in comparison to others, so we use it the most. The gallon refill size is a super value; Smartpak has the best price and with the free shipping wins hands down!"

"my Arab is so sensitive to mosquitoes it is hard to find anything that keeps her from suffering. And in Florida with the heat and heavy rains many products wash right off. Mosquito Halt is the best spray on I've ever used for her. It drastically reduces the number of bites, holds up in the rain and sweat."

"Mosquito Halt is the only thing besides OFF! that gives our DWB gelding peace after the suns starts to set. Out of all 5 of our horses, he is THE mosquito magnet and as soon as the sun goes down, they are all over him - literally making him crazy to the point he will gallop around his turnout until he is dripping with sweat.
Deep Woods OFF! might smell better but who can afford to buy all those little cans to use on a 17-hand horse every night during mosquito season? The bonus with Mosquito Halt is it continues to work the next day to repel the flies."

"I use it here down in Southeast Texas and it works great to rid my horses of the mosquitos. I also love the smell!!! It seems to last a lot longer on their coats than other fly sprays I have tried. I have reordered the gallon refill and will definitely continue to use it throughout our Spring/Summer."

"I sprayed this product on my horse and first of all it smells like old men's aftershave and it makes it impossible to breathe around your horse. Also, after spraying this on my horse we went on a trail ride and what do you know she was COVERED in mosquitos. Not what the product advertises."

"My horse gets a quick spray of Mosquito Halt every night to keep the pesky bugs off my horse at night. I would not have him in Florida without it! The nights that I am not at the barn or he is not sprayed he has little bites in the morning! I recommend this to anyone who lives in a wet or tropical environment!!!"

"Its a little stinky, but by far the best fly spray we have tried. Its the ONLY spray that keeps all the pesky bugs away. No way it lasts 2 weeks - but most sprays I have tried don't last an hour! By far my favorite."

"I bought this product due to the recommendation by Horse Journal, and am in agreement with their findings. It smells really nice, works great on our nasty mosquitos, and is effective against flies as well. I've switched from the roll-on facial stuff to using this as a wipe-on for faces, too. It is less oily than most roll-ons. My horses seem to tolerate it well and the bugs will fly near them but not land. It's almost like an "aura" of buglessness. OK, that isn't a word. I will definitely continue to use it."

"The product does what it claims, repels mosquitos, flies, and gnats, but it stinks! If you breath in the mist at all you feel like you've just ingested a ton of horrible chemicals. Not sure how this could be any good for your horse either! If you read the instructions it basically says humans shouldn't touch it or breath it. Yikes!"

"Indeed this is one of the better fly and bug spray products on the market, though that really isn't saying much.
I've been using fly spray for 30+ years, and I've yet to find one that works as well as the label says. Mosquito Halt is honestly no different, but it does work perhaps a tad bit better than most others. I have to reapply every day, sometimes twice daily, but it really does instantly knock down flies, gnats, mosquitoes, etc. It may only last a few hours, but for those few hours my horses are fairly bug-free."

"This is the only flyspray that works. My boarders try cheaper brands and their horses are stomping flies. My horses nap happily in their stalls not having to fight bugs."
