The Gilded Paddock
100% Natural Fly Spray & Coat Shine
100% Natural Fly Spray & Coat Shine
100% All Natural Fly Spray in a Normal Version and Sensitive Horse Version.
**Notes: the Normal Version does contain NEEM Oil as it is a great insect repellent and if you have not smelled NEEM Oil before, it has a smoky scent. Our Normal fly spray does have some citrus overtones - but you may still smell the NEEM Oil. Also, if you have trouble with your sprayer, please email us at info@thegildedpaddock.com and we will ship you a new one**
Our 100% Natural Fly Spray is a Coat Shine and Insect Repellent! Easy to spray on and brush out to impart a beautiful shine on your horse's coat.
Our 100% Natural Fly Spray was made specifically to be a Bi-Phase Product - a blend of aloe vera, water and Chrysanthemum Extract. The Aloe Vera provides skin conditioning and Chrysanthemum is known to soothe and revitalize skin, and it has natural insect repellent properties (pyrethrins come from some species of Chrysanthemums, the flowers provide insect repellency properties).
This water phase is combined with an oil phase that contains Natural Silicone Alternatives to provide coat shine without any heavy build up typical of plant oils and silicones. We also include Fractionated Coconut Oil and Sunflower Oil to provide additional coat conditioning. Natural Vitamin E provides additional coat conditioning.
They key ingredients providing the insect repellency are comprised of a Synergistic Blend of Plant Extracts and Essential Oils - such as blending Andiroba Seed Oil (harvested in Brazil, and used in that region as an insect repellent) with Neem and essential oils of Lemongrass, Eucalyptus Citridoria, Copaiba and Geranium. For the Sensitive version, we omitted the Neem Oil and Lemongrass - they are very effective at insect repellency, but can cause irritation to horses that have skin sensitivities. The Andiroba in our Sensitive Version is blended with Copaiba, Cedarwood, Geranium, Eucalyptus Citridoria and Palmarosa to create good insect repellancy with no skin irritants. See the full ingredient list below for each.
We do not use Citronella (can cause skin irritation), No Witch Hazel (an astringent), No Vinegar...and of course absolutely no toxic or harmful ingredients. Just as an FYI: if your fly spray has an EPA Registration...it is NOT Natural and contains EPA pesticides/insecticides.

Absolutely love this company. Obsessed with the vest and helmet cleaner. I literally spray everything it! I was disappointed with the smell of the fly spray and the company promptly refunded me and sent me samples of a fly spray without the neem oil. The new spray they sent me is great! Thank you Gilded Paddock for your fantastic customer care.
My favorite & only fly spray to use on all three of my geldings. Love that it's free of harsh chemicals & has a fresh natural scent.✨️🌿
This all natural fly spray works and lasts.
This fly spray is so good! I ordered both sensitive and non sensitive to try them both. No flies were on my horse for 24 hours. I then threw out the old fly spray (Eco Vet) because of all the harsh chemicals in it. This will be my new fly spray moving forward. I also love how Annie sticks a product in the package for you to try.
Jen - thank you so much for your review, I am so glad you made the switch to a TRULY NATURAL Fly Repellent Spray and ditched the chemical laden one!
This fly spray is wonderful to put on. It definitely makes my bay mare's coat glossy. Unfortunately the flies don't seem to mind it either.
Thank you for sharing that you like the smell and coat conditioning! I am sorry it was not as effective as you had hoped for the flies - I have refunded you for the sampler you ordered. Just a note - our fly spray is 100% Natural and acts as a fly 'repellent' - so it will not work the same as the toxic, pesticide fly sprays. Our fly spray does need to be shaken prior to spraying - and will need to be reapplied more frequently due to the natural ingredients. Most of our customers have had great success using our fly spray, and we do have many 5 star reviews - but I can appreciate that each horse's living environment is different and that our fly spray may just not be what your horse needs.
