Bug Check is rated 4.1 out of 5 by 291.
Rated 1 out of 5 by from Did nothing Followed directions and finished the container. Started before bug season and now that it's here, bug season that is, I see no difference at all. My guy is being eaten up and needs to be sprayed every day. As for the fecal, I see more bugs attracted to it now than before. I will try something else but this is a no go. The only good thing is that he liked it, but his breathed smelled horrible.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from MY HORSE HATED IT I love the idea of this, but, my horse hated it, he would not eat it at all. he even stopped coming in his stall when it was in his feed pan.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Beware - Ingredients misrepresented Just received a 30# bag today. The first thing I noticed was the ingredient list on the bag doesn't match what SmartPak listed for ingredients. Instead of dried grape seed as the primary ingredient, it's actually brewers dried yeast, a much cheaper ingredient with fewer health benefits. Had I known the ingredients had been downgraded and cheapened, I would not have purchased this product. Very disappointing.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Seems to help deflect the flies, horseflies Ordered this on the recommendation of a friend, one horse ate it mixed with feed, one, not so much, so now we mix it with soaked alfalfa pellets. Stable/houseflies and horseflies seem less bothersome, but the biting kind of cattle flies don't seem phased by it. Will continue to buy but also use fly sheets, spray and fly boots.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Reduces Flies I have three horses and love this product. I have used it for three years and it definitely helps reduce flies. I have one horse in particular who was always covered with flies and bleeding because flies were biting his legs, this does not happen with bug check!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Over the years I have managed health food stores and am still an avid health food nut. When my Schnauzer was still alive I always gave her brewer's yeast supplements to keep the fleas away. I gave my horses them too to help with bugs and ticks. When I saw this fabulous formula I bought it for my trail horse Rocky. I have witnessed him with fewer flies and mosquitos than the other horses in the pasture where I board him. They seem to land and fly away. I will continue to purchase Bug Check not only for the bugs but for all the other nutritional advantages this formula has to offer!!! Thank you Smartpak for offering this supplement to make my horse and others more comfortable during the fly season!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Keeps our coastal bugs away This is the first product that allows our horses not to wear fly apparel everyday or become welted by the annoyance of bug bites.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from LOVE IT! I love this. I have purchased this for over 6 months and tried without. Huge difference between being on or off of it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Bug Check is Amazing Bug Check truly works. We noticed a significant decrease in the amount of flies on the horses after we started feeding Bug Check. The horses like it and it works!!!!!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Product! I have a thin-skinned chestnut who attracts every bug in the world! This year has been the worse even to the point where I had to keep him in during the day behind closed doors with the fan blowing on him. Within a week I noticed a slight difference, and within 2 weeks he could roam around his paddock with just a quick spray and his fly sheet. The bugs hover around him, but not on him! An added perk to this product is the coat condition; shiny with dapples. While this product doesn't eliminate the bug issue, it sure makes it manageable and my horse comfortable again.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Actually works! While I still use fly spray on my horse, he is so much better this summer than last summer and I'm sure it's the Bug Check. Before he would toss his head the entire ride due to bugs and now he hardly does it at all!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from It really works!!!!! Bug Check absolutely works to minimize fly's on the horse! Amazing success! Note to Horse Owner - your horse will have Dragon Breath!!!!!!!!!!!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Feed Through Bug Control in a Powder Form I am using Bug Check mixed with applesauce and giving it to my horse in an oral paste. He won't eat it in his grain, but since it's a powder form, it mixes well with the fruit sauce. I just started him on Bug Check and hope to notice results in a few weeks.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Waste of money Did not work in the slightest.. Horse didn't like it , had to use fly spray all year.. I want my money back!
Date published: 2015-11-21
Rated 4 out of 5 by from Works well Had used this product in the past; but discontinued when some veterinary studies stated a link between garlic and Heinz body anemia in horses. Have re started after discussion with our vet. Seems to work well, especially in conjunction with Spalding fly predators at reducing the fly population at our farm.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Really diminishes flies! I have purchased Bug Check for two years now and it reall does reduce the fly issues in the barn/ stalls.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Big difference I have used this product for years and I didn't realize how much it helped until one year I didn't use it...big mistake!
Date published: 2015-06-25
Rated 3 out of 5 by from Average product Bought this a month ago so it just into my horse's system. The bugs usually dive him crazy. This product seems to keep the edge off him so he is not as reactionary to the flies. However, the bugs still keep after him when it is warm
Date published: 2015-06-02
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Bug Check is the Best Do you want to be exposed to less toxic flysprays? Do you want your horses to be happier and less irritated by bugs? Do you want your outside horses to have show quality coats? Feed this. Done.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from didn't help product did nothing to stop the bugs biting this horse. Trying the smart pack brand and it seems to be helping
Date published: 2014-09-23
Rated 3 out of 5 by from Bugs be gone I bought it for my gelding who has heaves. It made his breathing worse so had to pull him off after just a couple days. Gave it to my mare and she didn't like the taste but did eat it with coaxing. I am not convinced it did much more than straight garlic powder does. I live in central Florida and we have had a very wet, hot summer and the bugs have been very bad (re: mosquitoes and barn flies mostly) I don't know that I would use it again next year. I am undecided.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Works Great! It seemed to help my horses a good bit. The difference was crazy to see from before and after they started getting the supplement.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Very good product I have used this product and it is a very good product my only problem is getting the product. We have ordered it twice and it is always back ordered and it doesn't do my horse any good if I can't get the product for him.
