Imagine being able to spray your horse with a product that repels flies WITHOUT the pungent, toxic, synthetic-ingredient-ridden stench.
That's why our Ultimate Bug Barrier combines a powerful mix of natural ingredients and absolutely no DEET.
Do you find yourself struggling to find a fly repellent that actually keeps the bugs away, whilst not spending an absolute fortune?Ā Trust us, we've been there. What if we told you, during the 18 months of developing our Bug Barrier, we found a whole host of other issues with products currently on the market:
š¤Æ The vast majority of biocidal ingredients (Deet, Icaridin, Picaridin, Saltidin) have been tested on animals.Ā
š¤Æ The products with a particularly potent combination of synthetic ingredients can rot a plastic sponge. Have you ever noticed this? I mean... can you imagine what its also doing to our horses skin?
š¤Æ Striking a balance between a water based product that will evaporate off the skin and something so oil-based it has the potential to burn is a hard balance to strike
We think we've come up with something special that counters ALL of the issues above.
The Bug Barrier comes inĀ highly-concentratedĀ form so you just need to add water to activate! This means no more wasting money on shipping water around the planet!
Every time you run out, just order a Refill (for half the price!), add it to yourĀ Keep Me bottle then top up with tap water. So simple, yet so carbon efficient!
INCLUDES:
1x Keep Me Bottle which you can endlessly refill
1x dose of active ingredients, so just add water and you're ready to start using!Ā
Add Refills to your order and SAVE 15%!

How to apply to your horse:
- Neem oil ā this natural ingredient is well known for its pesticidal properties. We think it's one of natures most incredible ingredients as it's antifungal properties make it ideal for soothing red, inflamed skin!
- Panthenol ā great for healthy coat and condition. It also moisturises the skin.
- Glycerine ā a natural humectant. Emollient and moisturiser.
- All ingredients are pH balanced for horses skin.

How often should I use the Bug Barrier?
You can use it as much as you want to! We recommend a thorough spray first thing in the morning and again before nighttime for complete protection.
Is it vegan?
Yes! There are no animal derivatives used in this product.
Is it cruelty-free?
Yes. We will not sell anything that has been tested on anything other than our own animals!
Beware of ingredients like Icaridin, Picaridin and Saltidin commonly found in fly sprays as these have all been (and continue to be) tested on mammals in labs.
Can the Bug Barrier be used on horses with sensitive skin?
Yes, it is suitable for horses with sensitive skin, although please always patch test before use.
How should I store the Bug Barrier?
Store out of direct sunlight, in a cool, dry place.
What is the shelf-life of the Bug Barrier?
Our core ingredients have a lengthy shelf life, but we do recommend using your Bug Barrier within 12 months.
Can I use the Bug Barrier on myself?
We wouldn't recommend it, as the ingredient %'s have been designed for protection of horses not humans.
How long will a bottle last?
On the average horse, using the product twice a day weād estimate the product will last around 3-4 weeks. Don't forget, you can buy Refills for a fraction of the price of your 'Keep Me' bottle on our site too, which represents a significant cost saving versus other fly sprays!
How do I dispose of the packaging once itās finished?
The bottle is designed to be used for several seasons, so when it runs out, keep the bottle and spray head and just head to our site to buy a Refill.
Once it has reached the end of its useful life, the aluminium bottle and spray head are 100% recyclable, so can go into your recycling bin.
