Ridecamp: Re: [RC] further on bleach in puncture wound

Yes, and my farrier said to not waste my money on fancy foot remedies for thrush, he said good ol house bleach is all you need. I too use my hands in bleach and doesn't affect me. I wouldn't put fly spray or conditioner in my eye, so what is the point of that statement. Bleach is also great for killing Poisen Oak.  That's my story and I am sticking to it as well.
