Is there an advantage of one brand over
another? Can I use the Garlic Powder I buy at Costco? (Haven't
compared prices yet, but I have some extra floating around).
My gelding is a tick magnet, and Lyme
Disease is a real problem around here. I asked my vet about
feeding powdered garlic, and he said to give it a try, that it
seems to work for some horses and not others.
Well, it worked for my guy. I used to
find multiple ticks on the tip of his tailbone and golf-balls sized
lumps (dripping blood and pus) near the groin. Now I might
find one tick on him per year!
Started out feeding garlic from Springtime but
later switched to ABC's garlic, and I give
him one tablespoon at each of his two daily meals. He
would sift it out of his sweetfeed, but adding wetted beetpulp took
care of that problem.
