Take a Picture Posts: 12838	Mosquito Halt. Amazing. Read the reviews on the internet. Even slower down those big black horse flies

I just read the headlines Posts: 4483	deep woods off is the only thing that works for more than a few minutes down here in South Texas. But I only use it when they are really bad which so far has been for 3 or 4 nights at a time. I don't like using it because of the deet, but when the 2 mares who hate to be sprayed, come up to me in the pasture and I can spray them with no halters and only a cookie for afterward, I figure they really need the relief.

I'm going to get some today. I swear I spent more time fighting horse flies than riding yesterday. I have little enough time to ride as it is. I will try anything to kill those suckers!

Here is a cheap trick if you are just out riding. Get some small leafy branches a stick in your headstall and breast collar. Works best on deer flies but screws up the others too. May not work so well for drills por practice. Crazy idea works.
