This unique formulation also contains margosa (neem) and eucalyptus and has wonderfully soothing and disinfecting properties. Here are some top tips to get the most out of this summer season:
- Preventative strategies are the key to itch control.
- Start early! Use Summer Freedom as the weather warms with a once weekly application.
- Soothe, sanitise and disinfect minor sores with Summer Freedom and help break the itch, scratch cycle.

- We do not recommend you apply under fly masks as may cause irritation.
- If using product for the first time we always recommend a patch test first.
- Ideal to apply around sarcoids to help prevent irritation from flies.
- We also recommend bathing where or when necessary to remove build-up of grime and dirt with everyday conditioning shampoo. This is kind to skin and does not strip coat of natural oils.
- 600ml tub can last 6-8 weeks
Directions For Use:

- Repeat application after heavy rainfall, bathing or heavy sweating. Do not use under saddlery areas or fly rugs as may cause irritation from sweating.
