Aural Plaques and ACV
by Bev
(Orange, VA USA)
My horse has had aural plaques since I got her 14 years ago.
Just started adding ACV to her feed about a month ago. Plaques have noticeably shrunk.
Has anyone else experienced this result from feeding ACV?
I've noticed less fly bite welts on my herd of 4 since adding ACV.
Going to mix up some hoof soak and start giving that a try.
Note from
apple-cider-vinegar-benefits.com:
Aural plaque, also called aural papilloma, affects the inside of a horses ear and once it develops it's hard to get rid of completely.
These ear plaques are believed to be caused by a wart-causing virus, like the papilloma virus, and spread by bitting flies.
Since feeding horses apple cider vinegar makes them less attractive to biting flies and other insects and ACV is also use to get rid of warts caused by the papilloma virus, then apple cider vinegar should be doubly useful here!!
