How Does Durvet Thrush Rid Work?
Durvet Thrush Rid works by penetrating the hoof and attacking the bacteria and fungi responsible for thrush. The P.V.P.

Gentian Violet serves as both an antifungal agent and a visual guide, allowing you to see where the product is applied. This combination toughens the sole and creates an inhospitable environment for future bacterial growth.
