Independent Study: Ecovet Outperforms All Other Repellents* in Both Efficacy and Duration

Watch the study results in action, and read more below:


A 2019 research study published in the Journal of Economic Entomology confirms that, in head-to-head comparisons with other fly spray products,

Ecovet is the most effective at inhibiting flies AND Ecovet lasts the longest.

 According to the study, and as illustrated by the graph above:

“All products marketed as fly repellents decline in inhibiting flies with time. Natural A [Ecovet] appeared to inhibit flies longer ... ”

The study included a wide range of commercially available repellents, including those marketed as natural and those with synthetic pyrethroids as active ingredients.

Ecovet is the only repellent that lasted more than two days, which means that ... with Ecovet, a little goes a long way.

The additional benefit of Ecovet is that it also helps improve insect-related skin sensitivity.

ECOVET: PESTICIDE-FREE AND IT WORKS

The natural products outperformed the synthetic (pesticide repellents) at all dilutions and times.

In a survey of horse owners, more than 80% requested more information on nontoxic pest control solutions.

“ ... Natural A [Ecovet] continued to perform at over 75% inhibition at 1 d [day] post-application, even at 50% dilution.”
