changing the pH by spraying is comfy for the horse when the're no skin lesions, clever idea, have a look at aloeride.com/pages/Sweet-itch.html see my on the video, see the change Equine Aloeride has made to Murphy and if you click 'delights customers' then you can see Mick & Elaine's story about Murphy.
Thank you for this tip. I accidently bought the apple cider vinegar. I used it on my pony that has some itching due to allergies. I couldn't tell if it helped or not; she was unusually skittish while I was sponging it on. I assume the vinegar was stinging her lesions. About 5 minutes later, she was back to trying to itch her flank. I did not dilute the vinegar, and I sponged it on directly to her entire body. Where can I get one of those containers that attach to the hose?
You can get these containers at any garden supply store or use an empty ezall shampoo sprayer. Or you can do what I did by putting 2 tbps of white vinegar in a spray bottle and then fill it full with water. I did it this way because it is starting to get too cold here for a bath but I still had sweet itch to get rid of. So far it is working. I have been using it for 3 days and the hair is already starting to grow back in. Also putting on a layer of Corona ointment helps too.
