I have used the spot on but making enquiries about noromectin only. I used spot on because my vet told me to and I am perfectly happy to use some cattle products after I have spoken to a vet. Horse for horse, cattle for cattle because we are governed by the pharmceutical companies who just...

...a little iodine spray dabbed onto area is also good for ringworm. If this doesn't work then fork our for the imaverol. My filly has had ringworm too and I have used both and both worked (on different occasions). May save you a bit.

You could try a very diluted solution wash of Hibiscrub perhaps 2 or 3 times over a week. My pony is sweat itchy but also has itched in the winter on patches of her body, not classic sweat itch area. This is with a great fly sheet on so midges can't access the parts she is itching. The scrub...
