Midges, blackflies, landing block for horses

Blackfly season is from June to October, so the product is only available during that season!

Spring is the most beautiful time of year for many people. Except for horse owners! Because when the days get warmer, black flies and midges reappear and torment our horses with their bites. The season for open wounds and eczema begins, and with it, the season for midge and black fly repellent. .

But with the right remedy you can keep the little beasts away.
Anti black fly & Gnitze Anflug Stopp is a highly effective product for repelling black flies and midges. Thanks to its special composition, the pheromones (messenger substances) are continuously released via our CSS (Controlled Supply System). Due to its high yield, a small amount is sufficient to protect your horse for up to 24 hours.

This midge and black fly repellent works specifically against black flies and midges. The pheromones it contains communicate with the black flies and midges on a biochemical level, preventing them from landing and thus avoiding unpleasant bites.

Why you should care about these pests for the sake of your horse or livestock.

Black flies are pool suckers, only up to five millimetres in size, dark in colour and humpbacked in appearance. They first crawl around on your dog-cat-mouse to look for a soft puncture site. However, you cannot speak of biting as with the mosquito: These pests literally tear the spot open with their mouthparts. This also makes the "wound" larger.

These insects also leave more of their special salivary secretion in it, which prevents blood clotting.
Midges (Ceratopogonidae) are a family of flies (Diptera) and belong to the order of mosquitoes. Like black flies, their blood-sucking activity can cause your dog, cat, or mouse great suffering. This is because the blood-thinning secretion they produce is a trigger for summer eczema. The cause of summer eczema in dogs, cats, and mice is the animals' sensitization to a specific protein in the parasite's saliva. What exactly triggers this allergy before it is first experienced remains unclear. Therefore, it is crucial to recognize the symptoms early or to prevent them altogether with our anti-black fly and midge product.
