As an Equine Massage Practitioner, I am all about making horses more comfortable. Here are my three favorite strategies to fight flies: Fly predators, fly sheets, and night turnout. In this post, I'll talk about fly predators
Fly predators are tiny wasps that feed on the larvae of nuisance flies, such as stable and house flies. I have been using them for five years, and every year I am amazed at the results. I will hang fly-paper in my barn, just to see how well the fly predators are working, and it is not unusual for me to not find a SINGLE fly on the fly paper--all summer long. Cheap (under $30 a month for five horses) and really effective. Next week: Fly sheets.
