BUGSTUFF™ is a general purpose fly spray that we mix up ourselves. Being the cheap guy that I am and having a chemistry education, I read labels. Jennie and Chrissy used to hate the dissertations at the dinner table about what is in stuff. Anyway, I read what I was paying about nine dollars a quart for and figured out that each bottle of that fly spray from the tack store had about fifty cents worth of active ingredient in it and the rest was something to make it smell good and water. It seems that flies just bounced off the stuff too. Sooo, I said--again--"I can do better than that." I mixed up a 5 gallon pail of Bugstuff spray that wets out on the horse, didn't smell too bad and really killed bugs. I left the pail at the barn with a sign saying "help yourself" Of course everyone else who is cheap like me filled their empty Bronco bottles with my home brew, and kept the really nice smelling expensive stuff for spraying on their horses at events. For some reason they figured that because it was free, it didn't work as well but it kept disappearing from the pail anyway. This product is about the same as what you buy in the quart bottle but we put
in a wetting agent to keep the citronella oil in suspension and to help wet out
the horses' hair. The active ingredient is the same stuff they use in dairy
barns to keep the fly population in check, only you get enough in your quart of
concentrate to do some good. A starter kit is a quart of concentrate, a 5 gallon
pail with a spout and a label for the pail. The instructions are real difficult.
Pour the concentrate in the pail and fill it with water and shake. Every time
you dispense from the pail, you should give it a good shake to make sure the
citronella oil stays in suspension and transfers to the spray bottle. You can
use your old spray bottles over and over again until the cheap sprayer they give
you dies or plugs up. Then you might have to go the hardware store and buy
another one for about $1.98. Key Benefits
