[chez111]

Hi there,

Does anyone know how to use iodine - I've been told by the vet to wash my horses foot with it and Im not sure what the dilution shoild be.

Thanks in advance

Sorry, I've no idea. Could you not just ring the vet and ask?

I suppose I could - I was just hoping someone here might save me the bother.

Mis the iodine solution (which is a very dark brown colour and sticky) with water until it looks like strong tea. I think it's about 10:1. as long as you don't have it too weak it doesn't really matter.
