Is this safe? (lice)

[Anro]

well dad got this stuff for treating lice but its for treating lice on the bedding in the stable so I wanted your opinion before I put it on the ponies (the store person told dad that when the ponies are dry its ok to put it on them?:confused:)

No! Don't do it!

If it says wear gloves to stop skin contact and prevent contaminating clothing then its obviousley going to cause some degree of irritation!

[Anro]

Thaught so but wouldn't be safe to use on tack and brushes etc.?

I would phone up the company and double check if theres anydoubt.

I have had very strange advice in the past from feed stores/WCF type places! I wouldnt take it as gospel.
