Instead of just repelling bugs after they've homed in, this water-based spray creates an invisible shield that keeps them from even knowing your horse is there. No greasy residue, no daily reapplication — just long-lasting protection that stays active for up to 17 days, even through rain and sweat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBacked by a decade of field testing and made in the USA by W.F. Young (the Absorbine family since 1892), UltraShield Gold delivers EPA-approved kill and repel performance with a bright citrus-leather aroma horses actually tolerate. Safe for horses, ponies, and foals — plus approved for premise use around barns, doorways, and stalls. Comes ready to use, so you can protect your horse the moment you open the bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Riders Choose UltraShield Gold\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDisrupts insect homing before they bite\u003c\/strong\u003e — FlyShield technology stops 100+ species (flies, mosquitoes, ticks, gnats) from locating your horse in the first place, not just repelling on contact.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUp to 17 days of protection\u003c\/strong\u003e — Long-lasting formula holds up through turnout, sweat, and weather — reapply every 1–17 days depending on conditions, not daily.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater-based, no greasy mess\u003c\/strong\u003e — Ready to use straight from the bottle with no mixing, and won't leave oily buildup on coats, blankets, or grooming tools.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePleasant citrus-leather scent\u003c\/strong\u003e — Horses tolerate the aroma far better than harsh chemical sprays, making application easier on sensitive or head-shy animals.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSafe for multi-use\u003c\/strong\u003e — Apply to horses, ponies, foals, and use for premise treatment around barn entrances, stalls, and loafing areas.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProven effective, American-made\u003c\/strong\u003e — Field-tested formula from a 5th-generation family company with 130+ years of equine care expertise.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eBest For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHorse owners in high-bug regions\u003c\/strong\u003e looking for \u003cstrong\u003eextended protection that outlasts daily sprays and stays effective through turnout and weather\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eQ: How is UltraShield Gold different from regular fly sprays?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUltraShield Gold uses FlyShield technology to disrupt an insect's ability to locate your horse, stopping bugs before they even land — not just repelling them on contact. It's also water-based and can last up to 17 days depending on conditions, so you're not reapplying every day like most traditional sprays.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eQ: Can I use this on my dog or other animals?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUltraShield Gold is approved for horses, ponies, and foals only when it comes to direct animal application. However, it is approved for premise use, so you can safely spray barn doorways, stalls, and turnout areas. If you need a dog-safe formula, Absorbine UltraShield EX or UltraShield Green are approved for use on dogs and puppies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eQ: Does it really last 17 days, or do I need to spray more often?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 17-day range is the maximum under ideal conditions — light work, minimal sweating, and no bathing. Most riders reapply every 3–7 days during heavy turnout or after baths, and every 1–2 days during peak fly season or high-sweat work. You'll know when to reapply based on bug pressure — if flies start landing again, it's time for another coat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eQ: Will this work in humid or rainy climates?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. UltraShield Gold is formulated to stay active through rain, sweat, and humidity — it's designed for all-weather performance. The water-based formula bonds to the hair shaft without washing off easily, so you get reliable protection even during wet turnout or summer storms.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Absorbine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47698948915421,"sku":"176678","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0619\/8748\/7965\/files\/optimized033126176678.webp?v=1775022718","url":"https:\/\/hoovesandpaws.com\/products\/absorbine-ultrashield-gold-insecticide-repellent-for-100-insects-use-on-horses","provider":"Hooves and Paws","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
