Is it safe for horses, can you set the timer for longer that 30 minutes and how long does a canister of the spray last?

I cannot say that it is safe for horses; I do not have them, and I do not use it around my outdoor pets. I am unaware of any way to change the timer, but a canister normally lasts 30 days.

Unfortunatley you can't set the time for longer than 30 minutes but maybe they sell ones that have longer timers? They can of spray lasts about 30 days. I don't know if it is safe for horses, however, I have it in a porch area where one of our dogs sleeps and she doesn't seem to be bothered by it. I live on a feedlot with pigs and cattle so I keep two dispensers in our garage to help eliminate flies in the garage and those that get into the house. Two of them work great at keeping the fly population down and I've noticed that it is also helping to get rid of other bugs like crickets and june bugs that get in as well. Hope this helps.

I did not buy mine on line so it may very. When I had my horses I would stay on them for 6 to 8 hours. I have R.A. I could not feel the impack when my horse went to a gallop. You have to make sure that you have the right pad and cinch for horse and the saddle in the right area on the horse. The saddle does give a little for horse comfort but don't over cinch or pinch the nerve. Allow for breathing room. I have worked and study in and as Animal Control person. I do care for the animals well being. Happy Trails TO YOU!

It really does stink, so I would not put it in any area that you need to access since it does attract the flies. Even though it says that it will not work well in an enclosed area, I did put one in my barn for grins and it really did work. My barn is open at both ends, so maybe that helped. But it does stink, so I will not be doing that again. These have been great for the outside, though! It sure has made my summer with the horses so much better!

I have not used it for longer than four minutes. There is no warning for a short setting. I love the timer for my use . . timing eye drops twice a day.

I'm not sure. I don't currently have a can on hand. But it is a dry spray. I keep my dog locked up ffor minutes after spraying. No one has ever gotten sick

Hi Beth,This is a great timer and is my third one. I buy them for my irrigation systems and have been using them for a long time. You won't have any problem setting this up to run for 8 hours. You can set any duration between 1 minute and 11 hours and 59 minutes.Good Luck!Alex

Absolutely. One little spray should do it. You could repeat in 3-4 hours if dog is still tense or nervous.

Actually, a good "Bug repellant is easily made with one pint Witch Hazel, 20 drops of lemongrass oil, 20 drops eucalyptus oil, 20 drops cedarwood oil..." shake well, then put in a spray bottle...This is excellent for both people, horses, and dogs... I Spray it on a cloth to apply to my horses...Great on fleas and ticks for dogs Lavender is great to sprinkle a few drops on your pillow for a deeper sleep, and added to a carrier oil for a soothing effect for skin irritations...

My exterminator recommended a product called NyGuard. It can be sprayed almost anywhere and protects for up to 7 months. You would just need to let it dry for about 45 minutes and it works best in conjunction WITH pet protection like Frontline and Capstar. It is also good to note that Capstar can be used WITH a topical such as frontline to ensure proper protection.

It is adjustable. I have it the max to deter deer. Not sure of duration at the max; probably 5 + seconds

I am a novice (been doing this 3 days), but I purposely chose a model with a timer to shut off. It has already been most valuable. I was dehydrating a pasta sauce, and saw recommendations to check it after about 10 hrs and turn it over when it is solid enough. At 10 hrs it was not ready, but was a couple hrs later, when I was ready to go to bed. So I turned it over, set the timer for a few hours, went to bed and my dehydrated sauce was ready to package this morning.

There are cartridges that slide on the top & butane that goes in the bottom. It last 4-6 hrs & then y just slide another cartridge thru & the butane lasts a lot longer. Push a button til u see a orange glow light & put it out on deck or table about 1/2 hr to 45 mins before going out I find that is how you get the best results of not getting bugs around you. It works very well ! I had the lantern one & the hand held in the area where we were sitting & never got bit. This was in the mountains in gatlinburg & on my back porch which is by the woods. Highly recommend it.

Yes, the longer it is left it, the better the effect. I leave it in for 20-30 minutes although for some people 10 will give their desired effect.

I ran it a good three hours+ Halloween on one tank with some left over. But it will depend a lot on how much smoke you set it to blow. Mine did not come with a timer, but you can find one on Amazon that works fine.

I found that whether it runs them off or kills them it lasts for at least a week depending on the weather. It kills the ones it comes in contact with and then leaves a residual on the leaves that either kills them or runs them off. I live in AZ so little rain to wash it away so it lasts up to a month in the summer. Just be careful & use it with very little to no wind. Plus stand up wind of whatever breeze there is & watch you don't spray yourself in a corner & have to hold your breath to get out! I've been there; done that.

This would be great for your situation. I am not sure how the horses will do with the smell. It smells like rotting chicken so keep it away from the house and down wind from the horses and it should be fine. You will be amazed at how many flys get trapped in one bottle. We throw the entire bottle away and just order news ones. It gets so many flys I can't imagine cleaning it out. They go in, but they don't come out.

I believe you are supposed to keep pets off for a certain period of hours. Check label or call company if it doesn't have specifics. It will be safe after alotted time
