Hedgewitch Itchy Gel contains a blend of essential oils in a hydrating aloe vera gel base to soothe itching and dry skin. 

Formulated as an easy-to-apply gel, it can also be applied as a physical barrier to midges. 

If applying to feather, extra water can be added to the gel (spooned into another container) to let it down in consistency and make it go further.

It's non-greasy and plant-based formulation doesn't leave residues that attract dirt which can exacerbate itching, as often happens with traditional oil-based products.

Our feather mite gel contains sweet orange and peppermint essential oils with BP grade neem oil in an aloe vera gel base. Neem provides a hostile environment for chorioptes mite and also acts as a deterrent to midges. Both orange oil and peppermint help soothe itching and are a natural smell that some insects may find unpleasant.

Summary information

Itchy gel can be applied to any itchy area, as long as the skin isn't broken, and to areas that need a physical barrier, such as the base of the mane and the head of the tail. Reapply as required, usually this will be twice per day, but be guided by the response from your horse.

Aloe vera gel, neem (Azadirachta indica) oil, sweet orange (Citrus sinensis) essential oil, peppermint (Mentha piperita) essential oil.

Aloe vera gel and essential oils are generally non-irritating and non-sensitising to the skin. However, essential oils do contain naturally occurring allergens in small quantities and some horses are sensitive to neem, so we strongly recommend a small patch test before proceeding with general use, particularly for horses with a known history of allergies or sensitive skin.
