Quick Tip #39--Keeping Biting Flies Off The Horses Ears While Riding in Heavy Woods




Yesterday I tried an old farm plow horse tactic that worked better than any fly spray that I have ever used. Breaking off a small cluster of sweet gum leaves and inserting them under the top of the bridle between the horse's ears kept the biting flies completely off of the horse's ears.


(In related pork picture news--a regimen of tabata protocol, intense riding, and extremely low carbohydrates has dropped over five pounds off of me in one week. )
