Horses Home

We store hay (for horses) in a multiuse 60 x 40 building. I would like to control insects (crickets, spiders) but do not want to harm the horses. What do you recommend?

We recommend contacting the manufacturer of any insecticide that you wish to spray in the building and asking the technical support group all these questions: * Are there are any known effects on livestock, including horses? * Is there any wait period before hay from this building could be fed? * Can the hay be fed at all once the product is applied? This would be the best way to ensure that the product is safe to use.
