the bite generally won't show at all or will only appear as a small spot of blood on your horse, however with blowfly and sandfly bites the bites will appear as a much larger lump which may need to be treated.

Can you use horse fly spray on humans to keep the bugs away from us?
Yes flies bother horses. Some are more pesky than others while some can cause a very nasty reaction from the horse. Face flies will cause horse to shake it's head while flies that land on the legs can cause stomping to the point a horse injures itself. Flies that bite will cause the worst of reactions. The flies cause a sharp pinching sensation when they bite and this can cause a horse to bolt, rear, flip over, or attempt to roll.Flies can also transmit diseases from one horse to another so fly prevention strategies are a must.
Do flies bite pinch or sting?
Flies (and fleas) bite. Bees and wasps sting. The flies that bite include deer flies, horse flies, midges, and others. The best way to kill a horsefly when it lands on you is to watch and wait. When it first lands, it watches to see if you are going to swat at it. If you don't, it will put its head down to bite and draw blood. As soon as it moves its head, its focus is on your skin, and you can kill it much more easily.
