Fly Off My Horse makes natural horse fly spray and equine insect repellent products that help protect horses, livestock, and riders from flies, gnats, ticks, mosquitoes, no-see-ums, fleas, and other biting insects. Its signature equine fly spray uses essential oils with coconut oil and contains over 15% active ingredients with zero water or alcohol.

What Does Fly Off My Horse Offer?

Fly Off My Horse offers a focused line of insect repellent products for equines, livestock, and people. For horses, the core product is Equine Fly and Bug Repellent for Horses & Livestock, a 100% natural equine fly and bug spray made with Coconut Oil, Lemongrass Oil, Rosemary Oil, Cedarwood Oil, and Citronella. It is designed to repel flies, gnats, ticks, mosquitoes, no-see-ums, fleas, and more while coconut oil adds moisture and shine to the coat.

This natural horse fly spray is different from many water-heavy barn sprays because Fly Off My Horse states that its Equine Fly and Bug Spray contains over 15% active ingredients and zero water or alcohol. For horse owners who have dealt with sprays that seem to disappear quickly in hot weather, sweat, or heavy bug pressure, that formulation is the practical selling point: more active product in the bottle and no water or alcohol added to stretch it.

The equine fly spray is available in 16 fl. oz., 32 fl. oz., and 1 Gallon options, including refill choices for barns that need more than a single bottle during bug season. Fly Off My Horse also offers Equine Fly and Bug Repellent with Shimmer for Horses & Livestock, a 22 fl. oz. show-ring version with rose gold shimmer for horses that need sparkle while still repelling flies, gnats, ticks, mosquitoes, no-see-ums, fleas, and more.

How Does The Fly Spray Work?

Fly Off My Horse uses a natural essential oil approach rather than a conventional chemical-heavy spray. The equine formula combines Coconut Oil, Lemongrass Oil, Rosemary Oil, Cedarwood Oil, and Citronella to repel insects while supporting coat shine and skin comfort. The product is applied directly to the horseโ€™s coat as needed, with the label instructing users not to spray directly onto the face and instead to spray into the palm of the hand and wipe onto the face and ears.

The companyโ€™s origin story is very practical and horse-owner believable. After moving from Texas to the Southeast in 2015 with three horses, the founder discovered that the bug pressure was far worse than expected. The horses struggled with skin issues, and fly sprays either did not work or caused hives until the Fly Off My Horse natural formula solved the problem without triggering the same skin reaction.

That personal horse problem became the business. In 2023, the founderโ€™s farrier, who also loved the fly spray, encouraged the product to be sold. Fly Off My Horse, LLC came to be in the spring of 2024, and the company has continued adding products based on customer needs.

What Other Horse Products Are Available?

Fly Off My Horse also makes Equine Insect Repellent Ointment for Horses & Livestock, a $30.00 all-natural multi-purpose salve that works as both an insect repellent and healing ointment. The ointment is designed to provide a protective layer with anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory properties that soothe and promote healing in bug bites, skin irritation, scratches, and minor cuts and abrasions. It is meant for areas where insects tend to bother horses most, including the belly, groin, face, and ears.

The ointment ingredients are Mango Butter, Beef Tallow, Beeswax, Shea Butter, Coconut Oil, Rhassoul Clay, Lecithin, Arrowroot, Lemongrass Oil, Rosemary Oil, Cedarwood Oil, Peppermint Oil, Calendula Flowers, Plantain Leaf, and Goldenseal Root. The size is 13 oz. net weight, making it a barn-shelf product for bites, itchy spots, scratches, cuts, scrapes, and everyday bug irritation.

For light-skinned horses or horses needing both bug and sun protection, Fly Off My Horse offers Equine Insect Repellent Sunscreen for Horses & Livestock. This all-natural two-in-one product uses the companyโ€™s signature essential oil blend to repel insects while 25% NON-nano zinc oxide protects from damaging rays. It is FEI/USEF Compliant, comes in a 16 oz. net weight size, and is applied wherever sun protection and/or insect repellent is needed.

The company also offers Equine Insect Repellent Mane & Tail Detangler and Show Shine, a multi-purpose grooming product for the barn or show ring. It uses the signature essential oil blend to repel insects while natural plant and animal based oils provide deep conditioning and intense shine. It can be used as a mane and tail detangler while grooming, on the coat as show shine, or in place of fly spray. The product is FEI/USEF Compliant and available in 16 fl. oz. and 32 fl. oz. sizes.

What About Riders And Barn Staff?

Fly Off My Horse also makes insect repellent products for people, which matters in real barns because the horse is not the only one being eaten alive. The company offers Insect Repellent for People in 4 fl. oz. and 8 fl. oz. sizes, made with Coconut Oil, Lemongrass Oil, Cedarwood Oil, Peppermint Oil, and Rosemary Oil. It is described as having a pleasant citrusy, herbaceous, woodsy scent, with coconut oil leaving skin soft and moisturized.

For riders who want something more polished for events, the company offers Insect Repellent for People with Shimmer, which adds a rose gold mica blend to the regular insect repellent. Fly Off My Horse also offers Insect Repellent Body Butter for People, a water resistant alternative that uses the same essential oil blend in a moisturizing body butter, plus Insect Repellent Sunscreen for People with SPF 30 for active days outside when both insect repellent and sun protection are needed.

This gives barns a complete bug-season option: fly spray for horses, ointment for irritated areas, sunscreen for light-skinned equines, show shine for grooming, and personal insect repellent for the humans doing the feeding, grooming, riding, hauling, and stall work.
