Product Description
Farnam Endure Sweat-Resistant Fly Spray for Horses is THE ONLY fly spray featuring exclusive RepeLock conditioner technology that binds active ingredients directly to the hair shaft for up to 14 days of protection - even in the most challenging weather conditions. This innovative formula powers through sweat, rain, and humidity, continuing to work when other fly sprays fail. Designed for hardworking horses that can't be sealed in a fly-free zone, Endure delivers professional-grade protection against six fly species, gnats, mosquitoes, ticks (including Lyme disease-carrying deer ticks), and lice. The unique water-resistant formula contains cypermethrin and pyrethrins enhanced with sunscreen to protect coat color from UV bleaching. Apply every 5-7 days initially; as RepeLock protection builds with repeated applications, extend to 10-14 day intervals for economical season-long control.

Exclusive RepeLock Technology:
What is RepeLock? RepeLock is Farnam's patented conditioning system that creates a chemical bond between insecticide molecules and keratin proteins in the hair shaft. This revolutionary technology locks cypermethrin and pyrethrins directly onto each hair, creating a protective barrier that resists moisture and maintains effectiveness for up to 14 days.
How RepeLock Works:
- Binds to Hair Shaft: Active ingredients chemically attach to hair proteins
- Resists Sweat: Water-resistant bond stays intact during exercise and heat
- Powers Through Rain: Light to moderate rain won't wash away protection
- Builds Protection: Each application strengthens the barrier
- Extended Duration: Reduces reapplication frequency to 10-14 days
Why RepeLock is Unique: Endure is THE ONLY fly spray with RepeLock conditioner. Competing products rely on surface coatings that wash or sweat off within hours. RepeLock's binding technology creates lasting protection that works hardest when conditions are toughest.

Application Schedule:
Initial Phase (Weeks 1-2): Apply every 5-7 days. During this phase, RepeLock is binding to the hair shaft and building protection. Full effectiveness develops over 2-3 applications.
Maintenance Phase (Ongoing): As RepeLock protection builds, extend interval to 10-14 days. The bonded insecticide provides continuous protection between applications.
Reapply After:
- Heavy rain or bathing
- Intense sweating during endurance activities
- Any time protection appears diminished
Sweat-Resistant Performance:
Tested in Toughest Conditions: Endure excels when other fly sprays fail:
- Hot, Muggy Weather: When humidity and heat cause maximum sweating
- Heavy Exercise: Trail riding, competition, training sessions
- Humid Climates: Southern and coastal regions with high humidity
- Summer Storms: Light to moderate rain won't wash away RepeLock
Real-World Results: Horse owners consistently report Endure works when competitors fail. The RepeLock bond maintains effectiveness through barrel racing, endurance riding, jumping, and daily turnout in challenging weather.
Sunscreen Protection: UV-blocking agents prevent sun damage to coat pigmentation. Particularly important for:
- Dark horses prone to sun bleaching
- Show horses requiring pristine coat color
- Horses in intense sunlight (southern regions, high altitude)
- Summer turnout when UV exposure peaks
Lyme Disease Protection: Deer ticks transmit Lyme disease - a serious bacterial infection affecting horses and humans. Endure's cypermethrin kills deer ticks on contact and repels new ticks from attaching, providing critical protection in Lyme-endemic areas.
