My RDA Centre are using Avon So Soft Shampooh on a pony with Sweet Itch......and it's working!!! Strange.........but true!! Don't ask me how they found out because I couldn't tell you!
A friend of mine recomends Avon tea tree shampoo to help repel bugs. (Don't know what made her try it either but she does the dog with Head & Shoulders).
i've heard good things about this as well. i think it's the "skin so soft" range, and particularly the woodland glade (or woodland something, anyway) flavour that is a great fly repellent.
Doesn't really say much for the smell if it's repelling all the bugglies does it?
Still I'm willing to try anything if it helps sweet itch - we have an Avon lady at work I shall get some off her.
Woodland glade do you say? I'd hate to get the wrong thing and it start having the 'Lynx' effect or something. My pony already fancies himself as a bit of a ladeeez man!!
Yes, i heard to that the Skin So Soft from Avon works, a few people i know are going to order some and try it on there horses, i'll tell you what they thort of it.
