Well Gel Bog Off Summer Spray – Natural Essential-Oil Horse Comfort Spray 998g

Well Gel Bog Off Summer Spray – 998g

Bog Off is Well Gel's summer coat spray, and they are precise about what it is for: horses that experience seasonal skin irritation during the warmer months. It is built on an organic aloe vera gel base with an aromatic essential oil blend, and comes in a generous 998g trigger bottle that covers a horse without running out mid-season.

The trigger makes it quick to work over the neck, flanks, belly and dock — the areas Well Gel single out — and it can be put onto a cloth for careful work around the head. It is a comfort spray for the skin rather than a licensed insecticide, and Well Gel ask for a 24-hour patch test before the first full application.

Performance & Benefits

• Organic aloe vera gel base, described by Well Gel as a cooling base.
• Aromatic essential oil blend for horses with seasonal summer skin irritation.
• 998g trigger spray, enough to cover a horse repeatedly through a season.
• Sprays evenly over the neck, flanks, belly and dock.
• Can be applied to a cloth for careful work around the face.
• Handmade in the UK.

Suitable For

• Horses and ponies with seasonal skin irritation in warm weather.
• Daily application before turnout, or before riding.
• Yards wanting one large bottle rather than several small ones.
• Horses that dislike a spray near the head, since it can go on by cloth instead.
• It is not sold as an insecticide or a licensed repellent, so a horse with a real midge problem needs a proper fly rug and a licensed product alongside it.

How to Use

• Shake well before every use so the botanical oils are fully blended.
• Spray lightly and evenly over the coat, concentrating on neck, flanks, belly and dock.
• For the face, spray onto a soft cloth or sponge and wipe around the eyes, ears and muzzle, avoiding the eyes themselves.
• Reapply daily before turnout, or before a summer ride.
• Carry out a 24-hour patch test on a small area of skin before the first full use.
