Red Horse Field Paste – All Sizes

Red Horse Field Paste is an antimicrobial sole and frog dressing

Field Paste is Red Horse Products’ anti-thrush paste for horses which are mainly field kept. It has a thick paste-like consistency that offers greater ‘staying power’ as it remains in contact with the affected areas longer than other thrush treatments.

Field Paste has been designed to remain in the collateral grooves, central sulcus and on the  sole for longer periods of time to give increased protection against microbes. At the same time, Field Paste helps prevent mud, faeces and other contaminants coming in to contact with the hoof.

Field Paste has a slightly lower concentration of antimicrobial substances in it than Sole Paint but it has a longer residual effect.

Too thick to be painted on, Field Paste should be applied with a gloved hand. For stabled horses it is often better to use Sole Paint otherwise bedding gets stuck to the hoof and it is easier to apply.

Field Paste contains:

• Green french clay – an antimicrobial clay which gives the putty  the perfect consistency.
• Bio-active honey – for its antimicrobial qualities and ability to make the putty sticky.
• Zinc oxide – a powerful, yet harmless antimicrobial powder.
• Tea tree oil – an essential oil well known for its bacteria and fungus fighting abilities.
• Eucalyptus oil – as well as being an effective antimicrobial, this essential oil assists in the toughening of weakened structures.     
• Zinc Sulphate – a powerful antimicrobial
