"I bought this product for a horse with skin reaction to stronger products. I have sprayed this product on flies and they don't even go away! I'd rather be using water, cheaper and eventually the flies will drown!!"

"This only lasted about two hours when I used it, I would have to constantly have to spray my horses throughout the day it's a good price but not worth it as it just doesn't keep the flys away for long"

"I absolutely LOVE this fly spray. It smells great - like fresh squeezed lemons. I've never had a problem with flies when using it, as compared to other brands of fly sprays. The price is great and it is safe for you, your horse, and the enviorment."

"My favorite fly spray; by far. It smells great, seems gentle, and works well! It does a pretty good job at repelling flies but I've found it doesn't repel as long as more heavy duty sprays. I don't, however, need or like a spray that lasts super long. This spray fits my needs and I will continue to use it for a very long time. Also adds some shine!"

"I bought this product for my sensitive mare who reacted to just about anything chemical. Although this fly spray did not cause any sort of reaction, it also only kept the flies off for about 10-15 minutes before they were back on her again. I finally spot-tested Pyranha fly spray and she had no reaction to that, and it worked. I realize that natural fly sprays aren't going to work as well as chemical fly sprays--but I certainly expected more from this spray then what I got out of it. I used two different bottles, in case the one was a bad batch, and still got the same result. Definitely would not recommend this spray. I would go for Pyranha's natural fly spray next time I need something natural."

"Equisect Fly Repellent is a nice alternative to other chemical sprays. It does seem to repel the bugs longer than other sprays without the patented ingredient. The horseflies in our area have been relentless this year and this repellent helps, although you need to reapply it frequently if working at prime bug time during the day."

"Ingredients are natural and safe. Provides decent protection, as good or better than many products. Not the best for heavy fly days, but I'm not afraid to have overspray drift onto my own skin."

"I purchased this fly spray for the first time this May. With all the insects that new england brings this fly spray repels them all. My horse is out for about 7 hours a day, while the other horses are being pestered by the bugs, my horse hasnt had any bites and doesnt get stressed out. I also love how it doesnt have any harsh chemicals or a strong smell I reccomend this product to everyone!"

"I love this spray. It is all natural which is great to know that your not putting all of these chemicals on your horse. I have a dark mare and the flies just love her. When I got this they stayed away when riding and for turnout. Shes out all day so this was awesome. And at such a great price! Its worked the best out of all the fly sprays I've tried. I will definitely be buying again."

"Have tried many natural and organic choices, this one works as well as any of the chemical sprays and works better than any of the other natural sprays. I use it for both turn-out and trail riding and combine it with a Cashell flymask with ears for complete protection. It is OMRI listed, meaning it is approved for certified organic farm use."

"I wish that I could use something stronger but my horse broke out in bumps when I sprayed him with Tri-tec. I like that Equisect is all natural. It has a pleasant odor and lasts just fine through a 2 or 3 hour ride. It's only OK for turnout but the flies have been exceptionally nasty this year. I like that I can use it on my dog too."
