ANIMAL HUSBANDRY WITH BIOGREEN PRODUCTS

Some of us who work with horses, cattle, hogs and other animals daily have been experimenting with the natural TEA TREE OIL products. We have used these to effectively replace harsh chemicals and expensive salves and oils. The properties of the amazing AUSTRALIAN TEA TREE OIL have been so effective when treating us, that we have taken it to the stable and have found these formulas to be as effective as their chemical counterparts, and in most cases to be even more effective.

The oils from the AUSTRALIAN TEA TREE (Melaleuca Alternifolia) possess these qualities:
- is a natural antiseptic
- is an extremely effective fungicide
- has an unusual ability to penetrate
- will desensitize nerve endings

Keeping these qualities in mind, you will see why these formulas work as well as they do.
The products used are from BioGreen Systems. BioGreen does not necessarily recommend these uses for their products. These are uses that some have found effective by using them in this manner.

HORSES

WOUNDS WITH DRAINAGE OR PUS:
Tests conducted by the Essential Oils Data Research Center in Vancouver, WA found that " TEA TREE OIL solution is a very satisfactory agent for the sterilization of feces and that it is capable of an effective germicidal action in the presence of large quantities or organic matter."
