How often should I apply Silver Honey®
Vet Strength Scratches Spray, and how is it applied?
The Scratches Spray should be applied daily for best results, and this application rate should be
suitable for most scratches cases. In severe cases the product can be applied twice daily. To apply correctly, spray the affected area until fully saturated.
How is this different than other Silver
Honey® products?
Scratches in horses presents unique challenges for treatment and healing that you don't necessarily see with other wounds and skin conditions. The Scratches Spray has been specifically designed to address these unique challenges with RapidSorb™
Technology. The Silver Honey® Spray Gel and Ointment are outstanding for treating and healing a wide variety of wounds and skin conditions and are a staple to have on hand in any horse owner's first aid kit.
The Spray Gel and Ointment are still our recommended go-to for wounds, cuts, injuries and general skin conditions, but now for horse owners struggling with scratches, there is a dedicated Silver
Honey® formula with unique ingredients and technology to address the specific challenges with treating and healing the condition.
How long will it take for the product to work?
The antibacterial and antifungal activity starts working within the first hour. The ingredients also
start providing soothing relief for the discomfort associated with scratches infection quickly.
It's realistic to expect to see signs of healing within the first few applications, specifically less visible
redness, a reduction in inflammation and swelling if present, and the start of scab tissue to begin drying out and falling off, revealing healthy skin underneath.
The timeline to fully heal a case of scratches will depend on the severity of the infection, as well as the environment. For mild cases with smaller localized infection and scabbing, it's realistic to expect healing within 1-2 weeks with daily application. For more serious cases, where larger areas of the pastern, heel bulbs and/or cannon are
involved, it may take 2-4 weeks for a full and complete recovery.
What makes this product different than
anything else I've tried for scratches?
Silver Honey® Vet Strength Scratches Spray
is the first and only dedicated scratches treatment that combines the power of
manuka honey, MicroSilver BG®, and essential oils to deliver fast and effective
healing without antibiotics or harsh chemicals. With the added advantage of
RapidSorb™ Technology allowing better absorption of key ingredients through
thickened skin and scabs, this treatment takes a different approach to healing
the infection than anything else available today.
How many sprays are in the bottle?
There are approximately 150 sprays per bottle.
