Product Description
Veterinarian-Created Alternative to Toxic Fly Sprays
EcoVet is a revolutionary fly repellent that uses food-grade fatty acids instead of pyrethrins, permethrins, or essential oils. Created by veterinarian Dr. Tim John, this EPA-approved formula creates a "zone of repellency" that confuses insects' navigation systems, preventing them from landing on horses.
The proprietary blend of three naturally derived fatty acids is carried in a volatile silicone oil that evaporates within 20-30 minutes, leaving only the protective fatty acid barrier. Safe for horses, humans, and honeybees. Clinically shown to improve sweet itch. Reapply every 2-3 days. Features herbal lavender scent.
