When to Dose

Horses experiencing an infestation of chorioptic mites tend to stamp and bite at their legs or rub their legs against things. This rubbing can result in in broken skin which, in severe cases, can cause scarring that affects movement of the pastern joints.  Some breeds of horse, such as Clydesdales, are more prone to Feather Mites than others.
