Why Choose Buzz Off Fly Repellent Gel?

Flies can be a persistent nuisance for horses and dogs, particularly during warmer months when insect activity increases.

Animals may become restless, shake their heads, twitch their skin or repeatedly attempt to dislodge flies.

Buzz Off Gel 400g offers a targeted way to help discourage house flies without spraying the entire animal.

The gel can be wiped directly onto approved areas of the coat, allowing greater control over placement.

This makes it particularly useful for animals sensitive to spray bottles or when applying repellent to specific areas.

Buzz Off Gel is intended for fly control, not for treating wounds, flystrike or existing skin infections.
