Mites

[twinklinggem]

My cob is stamping his back legs i ahve had him jabbed but to no avail hes still stamping his legs

any ideas shall i get him jabbed again

I would clip but i have to have him sedated to get them off due to having sore legs

I think you need the injection 10 days apart.

Front line spray is very effective too .
Clipping will make no difference to the mites and will prob give him mud fever

PM TheresaF, (i think that's the right final letter) cos she's the absolute expert on mites and hairy legs. she has a long PM she can send describing what to smear them in for no more probs. or, PM me and i'll cutnpaste it to you.

kerilli - send me the PM!
My mare has mites - we've tried unclipped, clipped (for easier treatment access), frontline, dermoline shampoo, had the injection twice so far - no improvement

I am officially desperate and will try ANYTHING to fix this!

If you want I can send you a very very long PM about the dark art of pig oil and sulphur and hairies in general. Just PM and I'll reply.

A lot of people say (assuming they made the end) that it answers most questions they have.
