Protect Your Horses Year-Round with ClariFly® Larvicide and Starbar® Products
You want your horses to live comfortably and stay healthy. But flies can quickly disrupt that, causing irritation, painful bites, and even serious health issues. Flies target areas horses can’t easily defend, leading to itchy skin, blood loss, and diseases like Pigeon Fever, Midline Dermatitis, and Equine Granular Dermatitis.
The good news? You can take control. By combining ClariFly® Larvicide with Starbar® products in a comprehensive Integrated Pest Management (IPM) program, you can significantly reduce fly populations across your equine operation, creating a more comfortable environment for both horses and people.
Why Fly Control Matters for Equine Health
Fly infestations don’t just cause irritation, they can directly impact your horses’ comfort and performance. House flies and stable flies are more than just a nuisance:
- House flies spread disease and stress horses when populations get out of control.
- Stable flies deliver painful bites, drawing blood meals that can cause discomfort, blood loss, and erratic behavior as horses try to escape irritation.
Just one horse’s manure can serve as a breeding ground for up to 10,000 flies per day, making proactive management essential.
The Foundation: ClariFly® Larvicide
Start your IPM program with ClariFly® Larvicide, a feed-through solution that stops flies before they ever emerge. Available in blocks and tubs, ClariFly® Larvicide works by preventing the development of flies in the manure of treated animals, reducing labeled fly populations by up to 96.7%.
Using ClariFly® Larvicide is simple and effective, but it delivers the best results when combined with other fly control tools.
The Reinforcement: Starbar® Products
Pairing ClariFly® Larvicide with traps, sprays, and baits from the Starbar® line strengthens your fly control strategy and targets adult flies where they thrive.
