Scrub daily with salt watee and i pack crevices with red horse field paste overnight as stabled and get poo and wee on feet at night. I also salt scrub every few days. I dont use any strong chemicals as this can cause damage to healthy tissue as well. I know copper sulfate is very effective but i usually find salt water scrubs do the trick if you treat aggressively.

Ok we have NAF antibacterial scrub but it keeps coming back so I wondered if there was anything better. X

Agree with Jessie Blue - Red Horse field paste is great stuff.

If it is just normal thrush, I use canesten thrush cream from the chemist, or a similar cheaper make. 1% My horse had a deep hole in the frog/heel and I had to mix that with a special cream as it was really quite bad. It worked a treat. Had it originally for the first 6 yrs I had her, and had spent loads on different boots, bandages, creams and potions, and nothing worked. She's not had an issue for the last few years.

iodine is one of the most effective ways. Brush it on every day for 4/5 days.
