Pestoban Skin Wash

Pestoban is a highly concentrated herbal skin wash. The diluted solution helps repel lice, harvest mites, other parasites and flies.

It is plant-based and safe but should not be used near the eyes.

Pestoban will help keep coats in good condition and can also be used on dogs. 'Really useful for foot stamping in heavy horses'

PRESENTATION: BLAZE: 250ml, 500mL or 1L bottles

DIRECTIONS: Always remember to mix one part Pestoban with 20 parts water before applying with a sponge. After application leave horse in the shade away from the sun for 1 hour and then rinse liberally with water. Can also be supplied in diluted form if required. Costs: £15.50 / 250ml
