Natural fly spray for my barn?
+11
Do you ever have any ideas on coming up with a mix to kill flies so I can us it in my barn and won’t have a effect on my horse, donkey and the hay in the tack room?

hope this helps out
We have had some good results with the commercially available fly traps... just be sure and remove them often... and put them in a zipper bag before putting them in the trash.... that way the "contents" don't escape to make more flies.... also.... check online for the nematodes that you put around the barns and corrals... they destroy the fly eggs.. so they don't hatch... you will need to re-seed the nematodes periodically.
Here's a page with a video that might help...

Wipe around the animals eyes and butt with dryer sheets. Wipe your neck, arms, or any skin showing. It also works for dogs being tormented by gnats on a camping trip. Try it and let me know how it went.
