Do such things exist?
Have a very wet, smelly horse. Kept on straw on rubber mats (cheap, easy to skip out and anything else doubles muck out time and sends cost of bedding from £5/week max to £20/week min!!). Full muck out each morning with beds left up for floor to dry throughout the day.
But, due to high volumes of wee it stinks to high heaven!
Are there any products I can use to help deordorise/neutralise the smell slightly and more importantly are they worse the cost/do they work?
N.B. Before anyone suggests it, have tried using an absorbant base (wood pellets, magazorb, shavings etc) under straw but she still gets through a minimum of 2 bags a week in addition to the straw she gets through. Have also tried deep litter but it ended up needing a full muck out every other week due to wetness.
