Re: [RC] [RC-Digest] Mane mites (Northern Fowl Mite) - Sunnyland
>>"From: rides2far@xxxxxxxx It's called
RID "bedding spray" or something like that, and you can get it at the drug
store. (for human head lice)".>> I tried the shampoo version
and that didn't work for us. It is milder, if I'm remembering correctly
though, than the bedding spray. The couple horses that have the problem, only
have it in the mane- not the tail or elsewhere. When I asked the vet to do a
scraping, he looked and said, "I don't see any indication of a parasite".
He suggested Vit E/ Selenium. I tried that for 1 month with no
improvement. Certainly wish I'd said "just do a scraping" to the
vet! I'm going to try the pour-on ivermectrin, Barb. Thanks
for the info.
