I have a mare that was well trained and obedient in most ways, but would have a fit with fly spray. For some reason I thought that maybe the chemicals were bothering her skin. Got some 'natural' sprays and she will stand perfectly still for praying with those.. Pick up the wrong bottle, (still use the stonger stuff on the other horses) and she will run away from it after she realizes that you have the wrong stuff. -- Anna
