Found this the other day - interesting reading for those who have horses prone to skin conditions. Read the first page with regard to potions and tack boxes.

Sorry, only having my second cup of coffee today.

Try using frontline and pig oil and sulphur - see my posts on the mites post - really does work but you have to keep up with the oil and sulphur.

Thanks - I've printed to read with my brew, then pass on to my mum, as it's her horse! Looks really interesting.
She's got her second spraying of frontline at the weekend (after a hibiscrub wash) and I'm waiting for sulphur to be delivered (thanks to you!). She was much less itchy after the first spraying - and the vet was pleased as she actually found some mites in the hair sample she took.

Thanks for the article I have just printed it off for future reference.
I searched all over re such an article as I have recently had skin problems with my horse which appear now to be healing after a chronic viral infection resulting in liver problems was diagnosed and she is now on a liver detox/boost course.
