“SOLITUDE IGR is a safe and effective fly control product and we are so pleased to have Pfizer Animal Health’s support in this sweepstakes,” said Jennifer Rowan, publisher of Stable Management Magazine. “I would like to give a thank you to Pfizer Animal Health and SmartPak Equine for their contributions. Without them, we could not offer such great prizes.”

Effective fly control can be a challenge for any horse owner. Flies are capable of transmitting disease and even affecting the weight and condition of horses, in severe cases. Safe and convenient, SOLITDUE IGR is an easy to dose feed-through fly prevention that safely and dramatically reduces fly populations around horse operations by preventing immature flies from developing into adults.

The active ingredient in SOLITUDE IGR (2.12% cyromazine) has been shown in multiple studies to be up to 100% effective against house and stable flies. To achieve these results, owners need only top dress their horses’ feed with one-half ounce of Solitude IGR daily. While significant results may be observed within two weeks, the full effect is usually realized in 4 – 6 weeks as the adult flies die off.
