Cavalor Sweet Itch Spray

Cavalor SwItch was specially developed for horses that are sensitive from skin irritation or itchy as a result of weather conditions or insect bites. SwItch protects your horse against uncontrollable itching and helps prevent sweet itch, including rubbing of the tail not related to parasites.

Apply SwItch every day to the affected skin as soon as you notice skin irritation. To keep the itching under control, use SwItch 2 to 7 days a week. SHAKE WELL BEFORE USE.

CAVALOR SwItch has been specially developed for horses that are sensitive to seasonally recurring skin irritations, also known as summer eczema. Summer eczema is the result of an allergic reaction to the saliva of a mosquito, which is primarily active around sunrise and sunset during the warmer months (from March until October). This reaction causes an itch that does not stop and results in chafing. Not all horses are allergic to this mosquito³, which is why reactions vary from horse to horse.

Breeds such as Icelanders, Shire, Welsh ponies and Frisians appear to be more sensitive to the allergy, and some bloodlines also show a higher susceptibility than others, which is to say that an allergic reaction is genetically determined. Feed adjustments can also influence the reactions. Limiting the amount of protein and increasing the administration of Omega 3 fatty acids have a positive influence. 

A miracle injection against this allergy does not exist, so preventing contact with this mosquito is the message. Cavalor SwItch keeps this evildoer at a distance, and you can keep the itch under control, so that your horse will not be plagued by an incessan

This depends a lot on your horse's itching level and the environment. Therefore, dosing levels may vary among horses. We recommend initial use of twice a day (morning/evening). Diminish the frequency to a level that suits your horse. For maintenance, Cavalor SwItch may be used once a week as a tool in the prevention of sweet itch.
