Natural solution to hand sanitiser

THERE is no need for horse owners to worry about running out of supplies for their four-legged friends. TRM are offering free deliveries and will operate a ‘drive-thru’ service for customers from Tuesday, March 24th.

The team are also seeing a lot of people utilise the antiseptic properties of their Equizal cream as an alternative to alcohol based hand sanitisation.

Equizal contains tea tree oil, beeswax, zinc and lanolin. Tea tree oil makes an ideal natural hand sanitizer. Studies have shown that it kills several common bacteria and viruses responsible for causing illness, including E. coli, S. pneumoniae and H. influenza.

Tea tree oil contains a number of compounds that have been shown to kill certain bacteria, viruses and fungi.

Beeswax creates a protective barrier and contains long-chain alcohols.

Using Equizal containing tree oil as a natural hand sanitizer may help kill a number of germs responsible for colds, flu and other illness.
