EXtra Fly Protection with UltraShield EX

Posted on: August 28, 2024 by Ali Aucker

As summer wanes, I find myself dreaming of all the good parts of fall: cool mornings, cozy sweaters, and most importantly, no flies! However, we still have quite a way to go and I am still refilling my fly spray bottles with nothing but the best: UltraShield EX.

Fly Season's "It Girl"

UltraShield EX isn’t just any fly spray - it is fly season’s “it girl”. With its long-lasting protection that works for up to 17 days, it's perfect for those who want to ensure their horses are protected against flies, mosquitoes, and other biting insects. What I love most is its versatility; whether your horse is in the barn, out on the trail, or in the pasture, UltraShield EX stands up to the test.

This spray also boasts advanced weatherproofing, meaning it won’t wash off easily in the rain or sweat off during a rigorous ride. The fact that it also provides sunscreen makes it a two-in-one solution, protecting against harmful UV rays while keeping flies at bay.

Given how effective UltraShield EX is, it’s no surprise that I go through a lot of it. That's why I opt to buy it by the gallon. Refilling spray bottles from a gallon jug is quick and easy, and it reduces plastic waste—a win for both my wallet and the environment. Plus, with a gallon on hand, I’m always prepared, even when fly season lingers longer than expected.

UltraShield Partners Perfectly

While UltraShield EX is my go-to fly spray, my gelding, Tony, is very sensitive and deserves the best. That’s why I pair it with the SmartMesh Ultimate Fly Sheet, which comes with an impressive three-year durability guarantee. This sheet is designed to withstand daily wear and tear, ensuring Tony stays comfortable and protected throughout fly season and beyond.

Additionally, the SmartPak Comfort Fly Mask with SmartCore Technology is a must-have for keeping Tony’s white face shielded from pesky flies and the sun. The mask's design allows for maximum comfort while ensuring that flies and other biting insects are kept at bay, making it a perfect companion to the UltraShield EX Fly Spray.
