Adding "big jumbo jet fuckers" to my vocabulary now, that's fantastic xD |

Vinegar, tea and citronella mixed together does vaguely work. A lady who's horse I looked after used to make it and I have to say we didn't seem to get bothered as much. That being said, we didn't get bothered by people much either because it stank to high heaven |

A combo of fly spray + sulfur powder +/- menthol crystals works quite well |
BlackRose |
To be fair I think flies get use to certain things so the repellents become useless after a while |
BlackRose |
I saw somewhere that a spray bottle and some condiment or something worked for them as a homemade fly repellent |
The Old Gods |
I've yet to find a fly spray that get rid of them and the only thing that seems to work is a hand. Unfortunately, it's a 50/50 chance that they'll explode :| |

Haha Min 😂 it sounds like your have your ponies’ best considerations at heart, which is all that matters |
Minerva |
I'm much more into the idea of a fully hogged and clipped out cob than I used to be. I think that came with realising the difference between grooming them sometimes and having sole responsibility for their upkeep lol |
BlackRose |
They have a pretty painful bite. I’ve been bitten by one and had some swelling |
Ashcroft Park Stud |
Personally find hogged manes look just…. bad, but that’s purely my personal aesthetic view! Completely agree with Min re. the heat blanket though. Thank god for plaits |
Minerva |
We definitely get horse flies unfortunately. A friend of mine blows up like a balloon when she gets bitten- evil little fuckers. |

Hmm.. I'm not really sure how much of my old code's styles to transfer over to the changed layout |
