...and thrush. It also apparently provides elasticity. The oil is £7.50 for 500ml. The ointment is £4.99. The oil is easily absorbed and provides a long lasting shine. It contains lanoline, laurel oil and thyme. I have the oil with the brush included. This is really handy as you remove the lid and the brush is attached. This is much easier and cleaner because, even if you have a brush cover, it can be very messy if using a separate brush. Effectiveness. * * * * * * * * * * * I have found this to be quite effective when my mare was suffering from bad hooves. What I used to do, it spray her hooves with water and then paint it over the top. This did seem to help. Her hooves improved though they will always be bad.

...Effol Hoof Ointment strengthens the hooves and encourages healthy hoof growth. The hooves are strengthened and supported in their natural development.

...Boots Insect repellent spray With a Little Miss who seems to be loved by flying biters, I tend to take as many precautionary products as possible in the form of lotions potions and sprays when we go on our jollies. ~~WHO IS THIS FOR?~~ It is suggested that the spray is for adults and children from the age of 6 months. This is actually one of the reasons I bought the spray- if a baby of 6 months can have it applied, then it's a doddle for a 6 ½ year old. ~~WHAT DOES IT DO?~~ Protects those under the influence of the spray from mosquitos, midges and other flying insects, so if it does work, then this has got to be good news. ~~PRODUCT AND PACKAGING~~ The product comes in a 125ml plastic aerosol spray can with all information and directions for use on the back. There is a lift off plastic lid so no danger of it spraying... Read review
