ComfortMix Thrush Treatment

Thrush and white line disease start in the crevices of the hoof, where a runny product runs out before it can do its job. ComfortMix is a thin gel made for more absorption into affected areas, so the treatment reaches the spots that need it.

The pinpoint nozzle gives exact application with no clogging. You can work the gel into the white line or the thrush-affected spot without soaking the whole hoof. The thin gel also means less drip and less mess in the barn aisle, which matters when you are doing a hoof every morning.

Highlights

What it's for

Thrush and white line disease show up when hooves stay wet, muddy or packed with manure, and the wet seasons bring plenty of those conditions. Catching the first signs and treating them quickly matters, so keep a tube where you will see it on the way to the stall.

It fits a busy barn or a single horse at home. The narrow nozzle lets you reach the white line without a mess, and a thin gel is easier to keep off the floor and off your hands than a heavy paste.

How to use it

Clean and trim the hoof first, then apply the gel where thrush or white line shows.

1. Clean out the hoof and pick out mud and manure.
2. Trim away loose or undermined horn, as your farrier advises.
3. Aim the pinpoint nozzle at the affected spot, the white line or the crevices of the frog.
4. Apply a thin line of gel into the affected area.
5. Keep the hoof as dry as you can, and check it again in a day or two.

Good to know

• Treating just the white line or the affected spot means you are not soaking the whole hoof.
• Keep the cap on between uses, so the nozzle stays clean.
• Pick out hooves every day and keep stalls dry, since wet bedding is what keeps thrush going.
• If a hoof does not improve, ask your farrier or vet to take a look.
