How To Keep Wood Ticks Off Horses? Coumaphos spray or powder; pyrethrins; synthetic pyrethroids applied as a wipe, spray, or spot-on; and zeta-cypermethrin dusting powders are the most commonly used repellents. Brand names include Co-Ral, Deep Woods Off, and Frontline spray, which should be applied to the horse’s main, tail head, chest, and underbelly.

What can kill ticks instantly? Rubbing alcohol or classic amber-colored Listerine mouthwash will instantly kill the tick. If your medicine chest doesn’t have either option, you can wrap the tick in tape, essentially entombing him, and throw the wad in the garbage.
