No “Other ingredients: not listed.”

Citraquin®: No Mystery Ingredients — Full Transparency in Fly Sprays

If a label hides half the story, the only thing you’re buying is uncertainty. With Citraquin®, we publish what’s inside and why—because riders don’t want magic; they want control.

Why “Other ingredients” is the world’s most expensive shrug

Trust beats theatrics

Clarity calms the brain. When you know every component, you know how it’ll behave on skin, hair, tack, and surfaces. That’s practical confidence, not placebo.

Prediction is performance

Transparent formulas make routines repeatable. Repeatable routines make results reliable. That’s how barns run better.

Our stance: radical clarity

We’ll never publish a bottle—or a page—that punts with “Other ingredients: not listed.” Instead, we spell it out on the PDP and guides, so you can make informed choices without decoding marketing fog.

Ambiguous “inert” bucket—no roles listed
On-site how-to + FAQ for real barns

What’s inside (and why it’s listed)

On our PDP, we disclose the base, binders, emulsifier, conditioners, and the essential-oil blend—plus roles—so you can predict coverage and re-application cadence in your program.

Label literacy: a 2-minute checklist

  1. Scan the ingredient statement. If a product leans on a big “inert/other” bucket with no detail, that’s a red flag.
  2. Look for function by ingredient. Great labels (and pages) tell you why each component is present.
  3. Match claims to directions. Sensible directions should map to realistic, barn-safe use.
  4. Find the disclosure policy. Brands that believe in riders publish details on the label and online.

Regulatory backing (plain English)

Because Citraquin® uses allowable natural actives (e.g., citronella oil) and eligible inerts—and follows the EPA’s specific conditions for “minimum risk” products—it’s exempt from federal registration under FIFRA (40 CFR 152.25(f)). State rules can still apply (our PDP notes availability by state), but at the federal level this category isn’t required to be registered like conventional pesticides.

FAQ

Why do some labels say “Other ingredients” without listing them?

Many conventional labels aggregate carriers, solvents, and stabilizers under “other/inert.” We choose full clarity online and on-pack references so riders aren’t left guessing.

Where can I see what’s inside Citraquin®?

Right here: our product page lists base, binders, emulsifier, conditioners, and essential oils—plus their roles—so you can build repeatable routines.

Is Citraquin® federally registered with EPA?

Citraquin® fits the EPA’s “minimum risk” category (40 CFR 152.25(f)), so it’s exempt from federal registration under FIFRA. Some states still regulate sales/registration—always check availability in your area.
