With the arrival of warmer temperatures, horses become insect target which can be dangerous for your health, especially at a dermatological level.
By biting them they can in fact cause strong irritations and be vectors of serious diseases, among which the best known and most widespread Recurring summer dermatitis. Careful prevention by strengthening the horse's defenses and creating an environment unfavorable to insects, it certainly represents the best protection we can offer our four-legged friend.
Natural? Yes it can!
Insects are therefore a threat to our pet's health, but the use of chemicals is no different!

Practical advice
We have said that to make our horse feel good it is essential to avoid contact with external agents that can cause even serious problems.
It therefore becomes important to regularly apply protection products: in the living spaces of the horse and before activities (sports, workouts, walks, etc.).
Back to the box let's not forget to check the horse carefully, paying particular attention to the ears, eyes, legs, tail and areas where the skin is thinner.
