Bot eggs, cant get rid of them

[wench]

Has anyone got any tips for getting rid of bot eggs. Horsey has loads on him, and obviously I want to get rid of them asap. He doesnt like bot egg knives or grooming blocks, and I havent got time to go to a saddlery and see if they have any of that bot egg remover spray. I have tried using fingernails, but to no avail.

I use a razor blade (one of the disposable ones you get at the supermarket). Works well.

For the first time we are going to try the spray, as reading the info it destroys the bot life cycle even if you don't get it off. I'd make time if I were you, it sounds like a revolutionary treatment.

I cant get until monday, as I'm working all weekend! and there arent any saddlerys near me that I can just nip to! hence why I am wondering if there is any other way.

Not to sure how he would react to the razor blade either, hes 3/4 tb, so very fine hair and skin!

Went up to the yard on Thursday to discover my daugher using hairspray on them, then scrapping off with the back of a pair of scissors! I asked why hairspray and she said her nanny says hairspray is great for everything and you know what? it works, they seemed to just slide off..
