Carr & Day & Martin Killitch – Proven to prevent sweet itch. AVM-GSL* licensed product with active ingredient benzyl benzoate in a soothing lotion, specially formulated for horses. If used as a preventative measure in early Spring prior to the symptoms becoming evident, the condition may not take hold.

How to Use Killitch

Start treatment as soon as sweet itch is diagnosed.

1. Use a medicated shampoo to effectively clean the skin. We recommend using CDM Medicated Shampoo. 

2. Apply the lotion to all affected areas using your fingers or a soft cloth. Rub in gently to ensure even coverage.

Application Frequency:

• Initial treatment: Apply twice daily.

• As symptoms improve, reduce to once daily.

• Once irritation eases, continue with 3–4 applications per week throughout the sweet itch season.

Consistent use helps keep symptoms under control and your horse comfortable all season long.
