Mud Bug Buster — Protective Barrier for Wet, Muddy Conditions
Mud Bug Buster offers a strong, long‑lasting barrier paste designed to help protect the skin in wet and muddy conditions. Its thick, durable consistency stays in place and supports the skin when horses are exposed to challenging wet conditions.
Why Mud Bug Buster Stands Out
Water‑Resistant Protective Layer The paste forms a water‑resistant coating that helps shield the skin from mud, moisture and dirt. This barrier helps maintain skin comfort during prolonged exposure to wet ground.
Supports Skin in Challenging Conditions The blend of natural ingredients helps keep the skin comfortable when horses encounter heavy field conditions, abrasive surfaces or winter turnout.
Naturally Soothing Blend Geranium, Tea Tree and other plant‑based ingredients are valued for their naturally soothing properties. They help calm areas of skin that may be irritated by constant wetness or friction.
Non‑Greasy and Long‑Lasting The paste stays in place even in harsh weather, offering reliable coverage without frequent reapplication.
100% Natural Ingredients Horse owners appreciate its natural formulation, which avoids harsh chemicals and supports a gentle approach to skin care.
How to Use
1. Clean the Area
Gently clean the legs or affected areas with Neem Shampoo or your preferred wash to remove dirt and debris. Pat the area dry thoroughly — the product performs best on clean, dry skin.
2. Check the Skin
Look for any areas that need extra attention. If scabs are present, soften them with warm water and gently remove only if they lift easily. This helps the paste sit directly on the skin.
3. Apply Mud Bug Buster
Apply a generous layer of the barrier paste to the area. Massage it in to ensure full coverage, especially around creases and areas that hold moisture.
4. Reapply as Needed
Reapply after exposure to muddy conditions or before turnout in wet weather. Many owners apply before turnout and again after washing legs at the end of the day.
5. Monitor the Skin
Check the area regularly to ensure it remains comfortable. If the skin does not improve or becomes more sensitive, seek guidance from a qualified professional.
Summary
This essential product provides a durable, natural, water‑resistant barrier that supports the skin during muddy, wet conditions. With consistent use, it helps keep the skin comfortable and protected throughout the winter months.

I have used this on my three horses legs the last two winters, and none of them have developed mud rash. It’s easy to use, does what it says, no horrible smell and easy on the hands for those that don’t like gloves. I wash their legs with the Bug Buster Shampoo, dry them and then apply mud bug buster. Would highly recommend this product.

This is a phenomenal product!! Unfortunately my boy got a touch of mud fever this year, I hate the thick gooey barrier creams on the market or the creams you have to scrub off (taking the scabs off prematurely) every couple of days meaning you open the skin up to more infection!!
This stuff is fantastic, I was surprised how well it worked considering it wasn’t thick or sticky!! His mud rash was gone after a week, and NO scrubbing involved, the scans just brushed off!

I would like to thank Torbeag for supplying Pro Equine Mud Bug Buster, what a fantastic product. we have tried everything, all the usual lotions and potions, mud boots etc with no sucess and this year the mudfever has been particularly bad. At our wits end we asked Torbeag and were advised to try Mud Bug Buster. we started applying to existing mud fever legs and within days a significant improvement. once cleared up we put on the legs everyday before turnout and it actually has stopped the mud fever returning!! We and our horses are delighted with this product . we cannot recommend highly enough

Fabulous product for both prevention and treatment of mud fever prone horses. My horse has previously had mud fever and since using this product we’ve never had issues. It’s amazing wicking properties means the mud slides right off their legs so no need to hose them for long in the cold winter months!
