WHAT IS THE ITCH?
The Itch is known by many names depending on where you live: Sweet Itch, Summer Eczema or Midges. This is the most over diagnosed cause of an itchy horse. Sweet Itch is an allergic reaction to the saliva of the midge. These creatures are very tiny flying insects that burrow their heads entirely under the skin in order to suck on the blood of their victim. Some horses are allergic to the saliva of the midge and it causes an histamine reaction resulting in swelling and intense itchiness.
The midges bite along the dorsal region of the horse, forehead, withers, rump, and base of tail. However, it is only a proportion of horses that develop an allergic sensitivity to the bites. This reaction starts as small itchy nodules that the horse will rub and bite at until hair is lost and skin becomes reddened and scaly and crusts form.
A follow-through program for 6 to 12 weeks after symptoms have eased and for 6 weeks prior to the next season is advised. The herbal formulas are given internally just mixed into water and then into feed.
