State Veterinarian Orders Range Horses to Cure Scab by July
In Great Falls today Dr Knowles announced a June meeting with horsemen and issued a strict order to treat all range horses across northern Lewis and Clark, western Cascade, western Chateau, and all Teton counties with paraffin oil and two percent sulfur solution to remove scab by July 20. The method involves rubbing the coat with a stiff brush, a single application enough if done properly. The scab stems from a burrowing mite that damages the horse skin and hair, risking death if untreated.
