3 reasons to treat lice and mites in horses through feed
Every horse lover encounters lice and/or mites from time to time. Mosquitoes that cause summer eczema and mud fever in the summer, and mites that seek warmth with horses in the winter. Especially when dealing with lice problems, we often find ourselves washing our horse multiple times. A task that we all prefer to postpone for as long as possible, until it's too late and your horse is constantly rubbing like a dog in the pasture. What many horse lovers may not be aware of is that nowadays you can also treat lice and mites through feed with a supplement based on herbs and essential oils. Besides saving you those annoying washings with special anti-lice shampoos, here are 3 reasons why you should treat lice and mites through feed.

You reach all the lice and mites on the horse
A dietary supplement against lice and mites makes the horse unattractive. Lice and mites, regardless of where they are on the horse, will no longer want to bite and sting. Simply because they cannot digest the herbs and essential oils, and therefore cannot reproduce. With conventional anti-lice products, you often have to apply or spray it on the horse. This never provides 100% coverage, and therefore not all lice and mites are repelled.
It is 100% natural and has no resistance build-up
The herbal and essential oil-based dietary supplement is 100% natural and has no effect on your horse's performance. Nowadays, we see that horse lovers are increasingly opting for natural remedies. Horses are sensitive animals, and therefore it is wise to choose natural products as much as possible instead of chemical agents like anti-lice shampoos. And a very nice addition; lice and mites do not build resistance to herbs, unlike chemical remedies.
It works better with exertion
When exerting itself, a horse sweats, which enhances the effect of the herbs and essential oils. Therefore, you do not need to reapply anti-lice or anti-mite treatments to your horse before and after training. Exertion thus provides a better effect, and the sweat does not diminish the effectiveness as it does with other anti-lice products.
