Thanks for the reply, I agree, my horses like to chew on each other's necks and if I leave halters on they get all chewed up by the other horses and of course, they use the halter as a tug rope. I find halters laying around in the mud or being tossed around by the horses if I leave them on. A fly mask wouldn't last very long with the geldings. Just like little puppies and shoe laces.

I use it in our dogs ears and also the horses. It works great. The little boogers just drown in it if they come near the ears at all. I have never had an animals ears get infected yet from these flys. Hope this helps. Sue (Desert Storm's mom) >Just another possibly stupid beginners question about >horses ears.
