Farnam Repel X Water-Based Fly Spray for Horses & Dogs 32 oz

Description

Product Overview

Farnam Repel X is a water‑based insecticide and repellent formulated specifically for equine and canine environments. The 32 oz bottle delivers a ready‑to‑use spray that instantly kills and repels six common fly species, including stable, horse, face, deer, house and horn flies, as well as mosquitoes, gnats, ticks, fleas, chiggers and lice. Its non‑greasy formula leaves no residue on coats, tack, or stable surfaces, making it safe for daily application without the need for rinsing.

The product is manufactured by Central Garden & Pet, a trusted name in pet health supplies, and has maintained a top‑ranking position in the horse fly repellent category since its introduction in 1957. With a best‑seller rank of #2 in Horse Fly Repellents and over 3,600 positive customer reviews, the spray has proven its effectiveness and reliability for both professional stable managers and home‑based animal owners.

Designed for ease of use, Repel X requires no mixing or dilution. Simply shake the bottle, spray directly onto the animal’s coat, mane, tail, and surrounding surfaces such as stalls, pens, and feeding areas. The water‑based composition ensures rapid drying, preventing the buildup of oily films that can attract dust or cause discomfort to the animal.

Each 32 oz container provides ample coverage for multiple applications throughout the fly season, offering a cost‑effective solution for large barns or smaller private stables. The spray’s versatility extends to dogs, making it a multi‑purpose product that protects both equine and canine companions from biting insects and the diseases they may carry.

Usage

Apply Repel X in the early morning or late evening when flies are most active. Target the animal’s neck, back, and underbelly, as well as any exposed skin. For premises, spray the interior walls, doors, and feeding troughs to create a protective barrier that deters flies from landing and breeding.

The spray is suitable for indoor and outdoor use, making it ideal for barns, stables, paddocks, kennels, and even indoor training arenas. Its water‑based formula does not stain fabrics or wood, allowing safe application on blankets, saddles, and stable equipment.

For dogs, use the same technique: spray the coat, focusing on ears, paws, and belly where ticks and fleas often attach. The product is safe for animals one month of age and older, providing a broad spectrum of protection throughout the year.

When treating large areas, a light mist over the entire space creates a “no‑fly zone” that reduces insect activity for up to 24 hours. Reapply after heavy rain or as directed by a veterinarian for persistent infestations.
