Neem Tree

[SarahF]

Hi all
I'm aware of the benefits of Neem (seed) oil, but wondered if anyone feeds Neem leaf or bark?
How do you prepare it and in what amounts?
Thanks!

We use 50% leaf and bark mix (plus turmeric) for worming, heaped tablespoon a day for 7 days.

Thanks for that - how often do you worm that way? As alternative to or as well as "regular" worming?
Where about are you (if you don't mind me asking?!)

We worm with this every 3 months, use conventional tapewormer in autumn and 'the one' for encysted worms every second spring unless signs of any problems or new horse in. I'm in the south west of England

Great. Thanks very much for that info - much appreciated!
