What are Feather Mites?

Feather mites are miniscule parasites found on the legs of feathered horses, living on the skin and feeding on the dead skin cells. They can also feed off the scabs formed through Mallenders & Sallenders so the two conditions often go hand in hand.  This leads to an irritated horse with very itchy skin with scabs forming and a cycle of inflammation and itching (caused by the horse rubbing, biting and stamping) which can be very hard to break, especially as the mites are easily transmitted.  The shampoo helps to keep in control of feather mites week after week, leading to a happier horse and owner!

Directions of use:

The shampoo is a great way to begin acting against the mites, will clean at the same time. Massage well, down into the skin from the knee downwards to the heels and leave for at least 5 minutes then rinse thoroughly. Repeat every 7-10 days for up to 42 days to break the reproduction cycle of the mite, then use monthly after
