Smart Solutions for Summer at the Barn

Press Release

Summer is a great time to be a rider, and you and your horse want to be outside soaking up every second of it. However, the hot weather and pesky bugs that come with summer can make it tough to enjoy your time at the barn. Luckily, SmartPak has smart solutions to help you and your horse beat the heat and the bugs. From supplements to horse gear to apparel, SmartPak is the one-stop shop for everything you need to make the most of the summer. 

First of all, you want to make sure that your horse has what he needs to beat the heat and stay hydrated. Your horse sweats to keep himself cool, but that sweat is composed of water and key minerals that need to be replaced. Feeding a well-balanced electrolyte supplement like SmartLytes® Pellets is a smart way to replace the key minerals lost in sweat and encourage healthy hydration. This formula is now available at a new low price, making it even easier for you to give your horse the support he needs this summer!

If the flies make your horse bug out, SmartPak has got smart solutions for beating the bugs from the inside and the outside. To help protect your horse from the inside, consider starting your horse on SmartBug-Off Ultra Pellets. This tasty formula helps to deter biting insects, by providing higher levels of garlic, brewer’s yeast, and apple cider vinegar. Plus, when ordered as part of the Equinox 365™ program, you’ll save 25% on SmartBug-Off Ultra Pellets and support your horse’s overall wellness all year long.

When it comes to protecting your horse from the outside, fly spray easily comes to mind. SmartPak recently launched their new and improved OutSmart Fly Spray, which is effective against house flies, stable flies, mosquitoes, and ticks. It features an innovative combination of plant-based ingredients and is free from permethrin, pyrethroids, pyrethrins, and DEET, so you can feel good about spraying it on your horse and yourself.

For maximum protection against the bugs, use a fly sheet to provide a physical barrier that keeps bothersome bugs from accessing your horse. The new and improved SmartPak Deluxe Fly Sheet is a great option because it’s made of a lightweight, breathable mesh that will keep the bugs away and protect your horse from up to 70% of UV rays.

Finally, don’t forget to protect yourself from the sun. While everyone loves to soak up the sun, we know that UV rays can be harmful for us. Luckily, there’s an easy way to protect yourself and still have fun in the sun. New for this summer, SmartPak has introduced the redesigned Sunshield Shirt. This thoughtfully designed top will keep you cool, dry, and protected from the sun with its UPF 50 rating.
