Therapeutic indications
Equi-spot protects the horse from horseflies, flies, midges and mosquitoes both in the stable and outdoors. Its particular formulation guarantees resistance to water and sweat, making it a practical and effective product. The product has a dual action towards blood-sucking arthropods when they come into contact with the treated part: 1) insecticide/acaricide with prolonged contact times; 2) irritant for the insect with shorter times: the latter, known as the "antifeeding" effect, manifests itself with the inability of the arthropod to take a blood meal and its consequent removal; overall, the sum of the two effects protects the horse on average from around 80% of bites compared to untreated subjects. The product remains effective even long after the treatment
