How to Treat Bovine Ringworm Naturally
- 1). Clip the hair from the ringworm-infected areas to give the lesions more exposure to sunlight, which helps clear up the infection.
- 2). Remove severe ringworm scabs with mild soap and water. Keep the affected skin clean to aid in healing.
- 3). Apply an all-natural topical remedy such as apple cider vinegar or tea tree oil, both of which are reputed to help clear up ringworm. Use a cotton ball to dab the liquids onto the lesions.
- 4). Apply equal parts of a tincture of iodine and glycerin to the skin. Or dab a 20 percent solution of sodium caprylate, another effective treatment for ringworm.
- 5). Expose the affected area to sunlight, which seems to be a natural cure for bovine ringworm. Exposure to sunlight often helps clear up the infection in cows.
