a little goes a long way.
a lower cost antiseptic is Calendula . its made form GOLD marragold flowers.
We carry the onitment, Tinture and oil various sizes and etc.
This works great for scratches too.. mix a tinture 1/2 oz with a pint of
baby oil or mineral oil
rub it on the scratches or rain rot or mud fever ---all the same a batereia
growth
I make my own preperation .. Grow a mess of the GOLD marragolds... then when
in FULL bloom pick about 1/2 a qt jar--glass-- take off the green pod.. must
pick in afternoon when sun is full on the flower... the oil will be on the
leaves then.
fill the jar with regular alcohol .. cover tight set in sun or warm place for
a few days..
shake it up each day.. then pour though a filter into a dark glass jar..
seal tight keep in refiridg.
use about 1/2 oz of this mother tinture per pint of water- olive oil - baby
oil..or witch hazel..
can also use pure lanolin to make a cream ..
i use this on eveything that needs cleaning and healing..
can add tea tree oil to this too.. but just a few drops..
