Preventing & Removing Ticks from Horses

The severity of the tick problem that horses will face will depend largely on where they live and where their owners ride. A horse could be exposed to ticks just about anywhere. Some species are mainly found in brush, whereas others prefer grassy meadows. Horses can pick up the ticks by merely passing through the infested vegetation.

 Top Tips for Equine Tick Prevention

• Environmental management - trim pastures, hedgerows and fence lines and avoid stacking vegetation next to turn out areas 
• Topical Treatments
• Regular grooming and skin checks

Despite all best efforts, ticks may still be attracted to horses, and having a Smartick remover to hand is ideal for immediate removal and instant relief. Their unique shape means that they don’t put pressure on the tick’s belly, reducing pathogen transmission risk.
