Natural Fly & Pest Defense

Fly control should support the horse, not challenge it. Our naturally derived formulas are designed for daily use in real barn conditions, with an emphasis on tolerance, consistency, and environmental awareness. No harsh chemicals. No heavy residue. No overpowering scent.

Seasonal Availability

Fly and pest control products are offered seasonally to align with periods of active fly pressure. This allows riders to build routines around real use conditions rather than stocking products year round when they are not needed.

Availability reflects weather patterns, regional demand, and practical barn use. When fly pressure subsides, these products are paused until the next active season.

A Focused Fly Defense Approach

This collection is intentionally small. Rather than offering dozens of overlapping fly products, we focus on a limited set of tools that riders actually use consistently.

Citraquin provides daily fly defense in two sizes to match different barn routines. The fly mask adds physical protection where sprays are not practical.

Fewer products allows clearer choices, better routines, and fewer compromises for sensitive horses.

How Citraquin Is Designed

Naturally Derived

Formulated with plant based components chosen for routine use rather than chemical intensity.

DEET Free

Avoids synthetic insecticides that many riders prefer not to use on sensitive horses.

Show Appropriate

Designed to fit within typical show barn expectations and daily care routines.

Non Greasy Finish

Leaves no heavy residue that attracts dust or interferes with tack and grooming.

Routine First Formulation

Built to be applied consistently as part of a fly control system rather than as a one time fix.

EQUINE | DEFENDER Fly Mask providing physical fly protection during turnout

Physical Fly Protection Where Spray Is Not Practical

Fly masks provide mechanical protection in areas where sprays are not always appropriate. Used alongside a daily fly spray routine, they help reduce irritation around the face and eyes during turnout.

The EQUINE | DEFENDER Fly Mask is selected for everyday wear, breathability, and comfort, supporting calm turnout rather than relying on rigid or heavy materials.

It works!

My horse had a huge hematoma I spent months trying to get it to heal. The vet ended up lancing it but it was still having issues draining due to swelling. I had done just about everything I could; poultice 12on/12off, cold hose twice a day, bute, and antibiotics. I felt like I couldn’t stay on top of it. ONE day of using this liniment the results showed immediately. The swelling decreased by 50% and he overall looked a lot more comfortable. A few days later it was healed up and scabbed over.

Christine, thank you for taking the time to share this. That kind of long, frustrating situation is exactly why we built Draw It Out® the way we did. When you’ve tried everything and nothing seems to move the needle, even small progress matters.

We’re grateful you gave the 64oz High Potency Gel a chance and even more grateful it helped your horse finally turn the corner. Stories like this don’t happen overnight and they don’t happen by accident. They happen when care is consistent and the formula does its job quietly.

Thank you for trusting us with your horse. That means everything to us.
