Farnam Equi-Spot, Horse Fly Control, Long-lasting Protection, 6 Applications, 12-Week Supply for One Horse

Q: whats the difference between the blue pack and the green pack?

Hello. The blue box contains a 12 week supply and the green box contains 3 applications.

Q: I have four miniature horses. how much should i apply? they weigh about 250 lbs each. thanks!

I'm not a veterinarian but I would apply one vial at the designated points for all four horses. Observe them carefully and if the flies are still biting or they are coming in with ticks (my major concern) then use two vials split between the horses. The average horse weighs between 1000 and 1200 pounds. I will say that this product has protected my horse who is turned out onto hundreds of acres of pasture (poor little guy!). He never comes in with any ticks on him and the flies don't like him either. It eliminates spraying. I will say that this product is systemic and when I apply it he has a strange reaction. He must be able to taste it. The alternative is not something I want to deal with. We had a horse in the barn with Lyme last year and almost lost him.

Q: It's spring time so there's plenty of rain but the ticks are really bad. Am I waisting my money to put this on a horse that's out in the rain?

Unfortunately, I was very unsatified with this product. It did not work for us on our 2 horses anything like I had expected, based on the recommendation of a horse friend. One of my horses swells up terribly (allergy) to fly bites. The ticks last year were very bad as were the mosquitos. I used this as described and laid out on the packaging. Reapplied about every 2-3 weeks. It still didn't come close to the protection it proclaimed. Another problem were the plastic viles it comes in. They leak and thus you are always loosing the chemicals onto whatever absorbs the oils that they touch. Doesn't do much good on paper or wood shelving or a tack box. So sorry for the poor review, but this is how my husband and I view this product. I would welcome information on anything which provides greater protection. Thank you, Violet
