Spruce up for Spring

With spring finally on the horizon after an exceptionally wet and muddy winter, it is time to embrace a bit of spring cleaning at the yard! During the wintertime, as a result of poor weather, your equine’s stable can often become a dirty and dusty place. So why not use the changing season as inspiration for a spruce up? It can only be beneficial for the health of you and your horse!

A serious spring clean should cover all avenues from removing cobwebs, scrubbing the windows, floor and doors and discarding old, dirty bedding. Why not clear your whole stable of bedding and rubber matting and using a “horse friendly” disinfectant complete a thorough cleanse of your horse’s stable?
After the hard part is over and the cleaning tasks are complete, it is time to prepare a brand new and totally clean bed for your horse or pony! Providing a cleaner, more hygienic environment has many benefits, including; improved respiratory health for yourself and your equine, reduced risk of fungal infection, less chance of harmful mould spores infiltrating the atmosphere and a reduction in the possibility of bacterial infection setting in.

Using Nedz bedding gives horse owners peace of mind that they are providing a bedding which offers a soothing, healthy, non toxic environment, whilst also being virtually dust free, soft, absorbent and biodegradable.

Nedz Original and Nedz Pro both utilise Natural Nedz, a specially designed formula based on Manuka, Aloe Vera and Cade oil – all of which combine to offer anti-bacterial, antiseptic, anti-fungal, and anti-parasitic properties. In addition, Nedz Original and Nedz Pro now incorporate Silver, which naturally limits moulds and fungi developing, alongside helping to support the removal of harmful viruses, bacteria and other pathogens. The natural healing powers of Silver also help support equine health and strengthen the immune system; offering the perfect way to say goodbye to winter, and start the new season in optimum health.
