The truth is that it does not sting, it bites, and it bites with saw-shaped jaws that pierce any skin in a few seconds. In their saliva they carry an anesthetic and anticoagulant that despite their pain is unbearable. The climate change that produces these very dry summers makes a habitat in the middle and lower riverbeds of the rivers great for this insect that drives most Spaniards crazy.
Pets are the most affected, since they do not have hands to scare them away and they can hide. It is important that when we go out with our pets we apply a good repellent to prevent these annoying insects from attacking them.
In the GLU GLU PET online store ( www.gluglupet.es ) we have one of the best repellents: NOVOCLAC R2 with its applicator you can spread the gel repellent on the body of the dog, cat or horse in a comfortable and simple way. In case you already have an open wound with blood, then you should apply a healing and regenerating agent such as BIO-SCAR and in this way you will avoid infections and it will heal much sooner since the flies will no longer be attracted to the blood.
