My horses have been getting itchy legs, some are missing hair on their faces and chests. This is not improving with the usual treatments of insect repellants, for flies.
There's a lot of ticks on the property, but it's not explaining these issues entirely. They are being treated for the ticks. They are treated with permoxin, which is effective in killing the ticks.
There's also Queensland Itch and Neck Thread worms, but this is also not explaining the pattern of itching.
They recently moved onto a new property and were transported via a float that transports other horses and to horse show. Meaning there's horses in the float that regularly come into contact with many other horses.
I've been researching on the internet and they seem to also have the symptoms of mange. I was wondering how to tell if my horses have mange and if so, how to treat it.
