Description
Pine sap has been used for thousands of years for wounds because of its sealant, antiseptic and antimicrobial properties. It was also chewed for dental hygiene. Pine tar soap was widely used for eczema, psoriasis, dandruff, and dermatitis until chemical soaps became available.
Today, veterinarians widely use pine tar as an antiseptic and for hoof care. It’s also used for chickens as a natural germicidal and antibacterial agent. Click HERE for a PDF of botanical benefits in Oxen-Le-Fields products.
