Garlic has been fed to horses for hundreds of years for numerous health benefits. Feeding garlic as a fly repellent is not a new idea and works because high sulphur compounds in garlic are released through the skin via natural body secretions such as sweat, producing and invisible barrier that flies find repellent. Whilst still present around the horse, they seldom land on the skin and this significantly reduces the level of irritation and restlessness normally seen.
Garlic Horslyx offers a unique, natural and effective way to combat the problem of biting insects, whilst also balancing nutrient deficiencies in forage and grazing.
All Horslyx are weatherproof and can be used in either the field or the stable.
Horslyx is a palatable feed lick, which offers the horse a more natural trickle feed nutrient supply. To be fed alongside forage and/or grazing. Designed to balance nutrient deficiencies in forage and grazing, Horslyx can also be used to reduce boredom and stress in stabled horses.
Available in Original, Respiratory, Mobility and Garlic formulations.
