∙ 10y agoThere are several ways to get rid of mites in a horses feathers.
1. Wash the horses legs with a mite treatment shampoo. You may have to get this from a veterinarian depending on where you live.
2. Apply a mite powder to dry legs, making sure you rub it in to the skin.
3. You may have to shave the feathers and follow the above steps.
Either way you will need to do one or more of the above things. Also you should comb through the feathers daily to help disturb the mites and pull the eggs out off of the hairs. You can use a flea comb or lice comb for this purpose. You should also strip and burn the bedding from your horses stall or run-in and the bedding of the horses around him. Once this is done disinfect the stalls or housing area and apply either a spray or powder designed to kill mites. You should also wash the horses grooming gear in the same solution to prevent re-infestation.
