Worth it
I have been feeding this for the last few summers to my two horses and I notice some difference in how bothersome the bugs are. I would guess it’s up to a 30 percent improvement which I think is worthwhile. Of course, I still use fly spray and fly masks too as I want my horses to be comfy. I rarely write reviews, but rely on them when I purchase products so thought I should do my part!

No effect on bugs
My four horses have been on this supplement for 3 months and it has had no effect on flies, deer flies, ticks or horse flies. I started them early in February to make sure the supplement was fully in their system when the bugs came out.

Horse didn’t eat
My horse was not a fan of the flavor of these and refuses to eat them. He also has had bad diarrhea since he started getting this in his Smartpaks. I am going to empty all of these wells from his remaining Smartpaks. So a pass from my horse!

Works well
We have been using this for our one thoroughbred horse and it seems to work for her. She is less bothered by the bugs.

Not working yet
I bought this a little over a month ago and haven't seen much improvement with my horses bug sensitivity. She also gets fly sprayed down with natural fly spray and wears a fly mask. The bugs around her face aren't as bad and the hair is growing back but she still has hives on her chest and underside her neck. I'll try for another month and see.

Have had great success adding to donkeys feed.
Miniature donkeys have done well on The SmartBug-Off being added to their daily feedings.

My horse won't eat it. I guess he's not a garlic lover.

Smells terrible!
I’m not sure the effectiveness of this product because my horses won’t touch it. They literally eat everything except these pellets. I’m sure the strong stench of them doesn’t help matters. They smell rancid!

Fantastic!
I started this at the beginning of June this year. My horse had been getting welts from flies the past few years. He is the only horse at the barn (about 30 horses) on it and I've only every seen 1-2 Friesland on his leg and fly right off.

No luck
Unfortunately my horses will not eat it. I can put 5 little pellets into their feed and they will turn up their noses at the entire feed bucket!

5 Weeks in and definitely see an improvement...
My 26 year-old quarter horse gets terrible "allergies" to insects / insect bites during the summer, especially on his stomach. I began the SmartBug-Off Ultra pellets about 5 weeks ago and definitely see an improvement. He still has some itching and bumps but not nearly as bad as usual. I'm going to keep him on it for the remainder of summer because some improvement is a big deal for him. He needs the relief. I mix the product into his morning bucket and he eats it up no problem.

Incredible product
A friend of mine told me about this product and she raved about it. So I ordered some and have been using it for about three weeks now. I am amazed at how good it works. My horses, I have 8, have no flies and it's fly season. I've never seen anything like this. And it sure beats fly spraying every day.

Still Evaluating...
My 11 year-old Arabian has developed hives by the end of summer the past 3 years, presumably from insect bites. I am trying this, but been feeding since April 14 and he still has not adjusted to the strong flavor/smell. I mix 1/2 scoop morning and night with soaked beet pulp and dry cob. I add some brown sugar to make it more palatable, but he still pushes it around, but eventually eats it. If it keeps him from getting hives, it will be worth the trouble, but will continue until Fall before I know the results. I have had great results with SmartPak supplements in the past, so keeping my fingers crossed!

Wow! This stuff works!
I have a very sensitive warmblood. He was shaking his head and rubbing his mane and tail. Fly gear made him more agitated.
I started him on this supplement with not much hope. Well let me tell you, this stuff was a miracle for him. And it started working quickly.
No more head shaking, no more rubbing.
If you’re having these issues related to bugs, it’s worth a try.

We have been using this product for years, and my vet and I are in a discussion on whether this product also kills worms as my horse never test positive for worms even though he sometimes shares a field with the cows. Flies still land, and they even sometimes bite, but when you compare my horse with the horses that do not receive this supplement, it is night and day. It works.

Used for pasted 2 years, great product.
Used for pasted 2 years, great product. Yes, I will continue to re-order. Helps with the flies alot. We use lot "bug bags" scattered around the fields as well. My TW/StBr used to get lots of bot eggs on his legs. Well, no more. The QH didn't. Less Horse Flies. Great prodouct. I order the MVP 6way and it has done great on coat, growth of mane and tail, helps hooves (also use biotin). Horses grow with these products.

Too soon to tell
I think my results are too soon they’ve only been taking them for about a week, but we had a horrible rain spell that lasted 10 days and the flies are horrible I don’t want to knock the product as of today because of the changes. I will say that both of our horses have devoured the product. So must taste good

Effective! Would like to see a 10lb Bag
I love this product. It's really helped one very sensitive horse and two moderately sensitive horses react less to bug bites. One used to chew his belly until raw, and rub his mane and tail, every year, without fail. Now almost nothing! Just the occasional itch.
I would really like to see the product available in large bags, instead of the bucket. I'm trying to reduce my plastic consumption. Or to see the savings rate of the bucket apply to the slightly smaller bag.
