My darned horse already has a summer sore on the corner of his mouth. Quick inspection after urination shows he may also have it on his urethra. Same spots as last time. I'm just shocked it started so soon. He gets flysprayed daily, SWAT applied 2x daily around affected areas, the owners clean poop 3x a day, he wears a long fly mask...I just hope I can nip it in the bud.
Does anyone else deal with these?! I'm thankful it's not in his leg or anything but it's still frustrating.

I'm dealing with gnats, they are eating my horses ears raw. Absolutely horrible.
I put a thin layer of vaseline in their ears and on their bellies. It helps a TON! My horses will put their heads down for me to put that stuff in there. Its nasty but better than raw ears.
