| So, I spray my horses. But we have ticks out here horribly because of all the cedars. They're bad under my horses leg joints, tail area and mane. I'm trying find ways I can treat them weekly
What do y'all do to help keep the critters off your horses? Lol they don't make pills for them like they do dogs do they!? |

| I need to know the same thing. I moved from a tick free Colorado area to tick infested Kentucky. I'm ready to pull my hair out with all the ticks I pull off my horses! So gross! |

Location: North Dakota | Last year I got some FrontLine spray for the horses from the vet (can't get it OTC) and that really seemed to help quite a bit! |

| Permectrin CDS, it's a pour on about every two weeks. I do once a month and have no problems. |

I order it. You used to be able to buy it from Tractor supply but the only thing they have carried for a couple years now is the stuff you have to dilute. This you don't have to, after you're done riding pour it down their back. I take a rag and smear it on the outside of the ears.

Do you have any issue getting your horses to eat it? |
