Green flies are TERRIBLE this year and are eating my horse alive! Fly spray doesn't help and she has awful welts on her chest. Any help would be appreicated!

Have you thought about investing in a quality fly sheet? It may serve as VERY useful, for all the trouble.
My stallion Kobe has thin skin and he gets terrible welts on his back and chest, so I had to get a Draught horse sized fly sheet for him, and then adjust it a little bit.
You can also feed Garlic and Apple Cider Vinegar. But Do not feed them in the same meal, because each slows down the others rate of succession.
