Sweet Itch is an uncomfortable condition for both the horse experiencing it, and the owner observing it. The Killitch Sweet Itch lotion is a fully licensed and scientifically proven treatment to prevent and treat recurrent cases of equine Sweet Itch. Blending soothing botanicals with the highly effective active ingredient Benzyl Benzoate, this fast-acting lotion also contains a strong repellent that strongly deters Cullicoides Midges, the type that cause Sweet Itch. If used promptly in early spring, before symptoms show, it can be used to prevent the condition taking hold.
