I Can't Find Borax for Treatment Mange

Posted By Sara (Colorado) on 09/18/2015

Hi I am wanting to make borax+hydrogen peroxide+water dog shampoo for mange. I saw it on your site. Thank you. It looked promising. I am getting frustrated trying to find mule team borax. My poor dog, didnt want to order online so as to be expedient. Today I found borax 6c tablets from health store. Can I use these? How much is equivalent to the borax mule team detergent? Thank you.

Dear Sara,

Borax 6c from the heath food store will not work the same way the 20 Mule Team Borax would. Borax 6c is a homepathic borax, very, very diluted.

You should be able to find Borax in the laundry section of any large grocery store. It will be near "Washing Soda." Sounds crazy that you would find medicine in the laundry aisle, but we have seen borax do some amazing things!
