HANDS ON TIP

WET WIPES

I keep a small washcloth in a zipped plastic bag in my grooming box. I use this to apply fly spray to my horse’s face and ears without the risk of him shying at the noise or me spraying his eyes accidentally. I just spray the cloth and then wipe my horse.— Trina Parker, Eustis, Florida Send your suggestions for inexpensive horse-care substitutes as well as hints for saving effort and time to Hands On, EQUUS, 656 Quince Orchard Road, #600, Gaithersburg, MD 20878; Fax: 301-9909015; E-mail: EQLetters@EquiNetwork. com.
