Embrace Equine Armor fly spray

Fly and biting-insect pressure in the Williston and Ocala area runs hard from roughly March through November, with the heaviest stretch across the hot, humid summer months. Plan on daily fly control during that window and a lighter routine as pressure drops off in late fall.

Most ready-to-use fly sprays are rated for 24 to 48 hours in a dry climate, but Florida humidity, sweat, and afternoon rain usually cut that to about once a day or every ride through the summer. Expect daily application from spring into early fall, then every couple of days once the bugs ease up.
