[QUOTE="Lannie, post: 1813264, member: 8202"] Well, I'll be darned, the Skin-So-Soft WORKS! I can't believe it! I poured some (maybe half a cup) into my half empty quart squirt bottle of orange oil, vinegar, and water, and took it out with me at evening chores. Molly came in for her treats and her lower legs were black with flies, and they were biting, so she was stomping like crazy, and swishing her whole back end, she was flailing her tail so hard. I shook up the bottle and sprayed her legs and the flies just dropped off. I lightly sprayed her sides, belly, and topline, and those flies left, too. We stayed out there with her for about half an hour, and she only had ONE fly land on her left front leg that whole time, but it didn't bite her so she didn't stomp. I'm gobsmacked. Rich and I put some on us, too, because the flies that left her needed someone else to chew on, and they stayed off of us for about 15 or 20 minutes, but then started coming back, so we put a little more on. I think the oil in the SSS sticks better to Molly's hairy legs and body, and continues working longer than it does with us and our bare arms and faces. But we all smelled SO good, and our skin is SO SOFT now! LOL! I found it for sale at Amazon and Walmart (no Avon lady needed now), but it's tripled in price since I bought that last bottle from our local Avon lady. Yikes! It's worth it, though. Since my good orange oil is still in Puerto Rico, and I may never see it, I'll get some Skin-So-Soft and use that instead. It smells nice and it works, and what else could I ask for? It even seems to drive away the biting flies! :) Thanks, Jan! Oh, I forgot to say, I'm using the super-duper horse fly spray on the floor when I get to the barn, and it's killing those flies right away. That helps reduce the total number of flies in the barn at the moment. Then the other stuff I spray on Molly and Joe (and me) to get the ones that weren't on the floor when I hit them with the horse spray. [/QUOTE]
