How riders typically use it
Multi surface note: Many riders use Citraquin® around stall doors and fly prone barn areas, and on sheets or coolers. Spot test first and allow to dry before full use.
Availability: Not available for sale in Indiana due to state specific product classification and registration requirements.
Results vary by weather, turnout, and barn management. Most riders use Citraquin® as one piece of a broader fly season routine.
Citraquin® is built around plant-derived aromatic oils that riders commonly choose during fly season. The goal is routine compatibility and straightforward daily use, without relying on synthetic insecticides.
Cedarwood contributes a bold, barn-ready aromatic profile that many riders prefer for day-to-day fly season routines. It helps define the scent character of the formula without pushing the product into “heavy” territory.
Citronella is a familiar botanical aroma in fly spray routines. In Citraquin®, it supports the overall fly-season profile while keeping the formula positioned away from synthetic insecticides.
Wintergreen is used in small amounts to round out the aromatic balance. It is included for scent character and formula harmony, not as a standalone “active.”
Vitamin E and castor oil are commonly used in topical routines to support skin tolerance and coat feel during repeat application.
Citraquin® does not contain DEET, permethrin, or pyrethrins. It is designed to fit routine fly management programs used by riders and barns.
