Absorbine® UltraShield® EX Insecticide & Repellent

Absorbine® UltraShield® EX Insecticide & Repellent is a sun-, sweat- and water-resistant formula for use on horses and ponies. As Absorbine’s most advanced protection designed for the most challenging insect conditions, it kills and repels biting and nuisance flies, mosquitoes, ticks and gnats. The formula contains sunscreens and coat conditioners, including aloe and lanolin, and it is weatherproof.

Ultrashield EX can also be used as a premises spray to kill flies and crawling species such as deer ticks and ants on the surfaces of a barn. Active ingredients: pyrethrins 0.10%, permethrin 0.50%, piperonyl butoxide 1.00%.

Better Application, Better Protection

Apply enough product to be effective, which is about 45 sprays (or 2 ounces of product) per application. The coat should feel damp but not soaked.
Apply to a clean horse so the spray sticks directly to the hair, not to mud or dust.
Shake well before you start applying.
Cover the entire hair shaft by brushing the hair up before spraying, then brush down for even coverage.

Pro Tip

I like to spray stall walls and around feeders to discourage flies from gathering. Spray inside your horse trailer prior to loading horses to ensure your horses are comfortable while traveling. Apply a light spray to brushes prior to grooming, resulting in consistently full coverage as well as gaining a polished clean hair coat.
