Effective against flies, fleas, ticks & lice. Flies can be a huge irritation to housed pets. The attractive smell of food, bedding and warm fur, lure them into hutches and runs. More concerning than the annoyance these buzzing pests bring, is the possibility that some types may lay their eggs in pets fur, where they hatch into tiny maggots. These burrow beneath the skin, where they feed and grow. This is known as fly strike, and can cause death from blood poisoning. Rabbits are most often affected, but guinea pigs may also be struck.

If your rabbit’s rear has become caked with excrement, this must be
removed before applying Fly-Free. Soak in a warm solution of Guinea pig
& Rabbit Shampoo to assist this process, and switch to a premium,
complete diet, such as Beaphar Care+ to minimise this problem. Ruffle
the fur, and spray against the direction of the coat. Leave for 1
minute, and gently brush through. Pay particular attention to the fur
around the tail and in the crutch area. Large rabbits require 3-5
sprays, small breeds and guinea pigs, 2-3 sprays. Re-apply every 7 days
to protect your pet throughout the fly season. Hutch hygiene is
essential to reduce the attractive odours given off by your pet. Remove
all soiled bedding at least once each week, and disinfect with Beaphar
Clean Disinfectant.
