Human Fly Replent Okay for horses?

[Shannon_Clover]

I saw a product, ideal to me, a lotion that can be rubbed on skin but it is marketed for humans.
It is called Thursday Plantation, it have tea tree oil and citrollena the only ingredients i recognised. Im sure it natural product.
So I wonder if it would be okay to use on horses.

Or any other products meant for humans which can be used on horses such as sensitive baby wipes instead of wipes made for horses for cleaning noses, and bum. Would that be okay?
Any comment welcome.

Many human products can be used on horses. Baby oil is a great example. Some horses though can be allergic just like people. If products are natural i recomend trying it out on a small area first then if there is no reaction then your pretty safe to use it. and if there is a reaction then you'll know not to use it and the whole body won't be affected.

You can make your own fly repellant if you want to save a bit of money!
- there are lots of threads on this forum for how to make.

I have also seen some horse fly repellant that you can rub on also but it can be pricey.

I bought the natural insect repellent lotion -Thursaday Plantation Walkabout. €8.
Def' easier to use than the Neem Oil drip bottle.
Will use this evening.
Do I rub on my hands and then onto Shannon coat or pour and brush it in or what the best way?

I use something called "Thursday Plantation" but its antispetic not fly repellant. I've never had any problems with that, and its pretty mild smelling with aloe vera. I should imagine its the same company, so should be alright.

oops, didn't see that last post..:o

I would say onto your hands then onto her coat would be best.
