Every time that one of my critters ghas gotten the plain regular mange, all I used was cotton balls and plain old cooking oil!! You just soak the cotton ball with the cooking oil and rub it every where that they are loosing hair.You figure if the mange is just mites, then the oil suffocates the mites and no side effects!! If the animal licks the oil it won't hurt them!! I did it for about a week or so or until you notice that the animal stops getting any more bald places. And maybe put it on still for 2 or 3 more days just to be sure. If anyone has qusetions,email me at [email protected]. This worked every time!! Even with a couple of my rescue babies!!

All who love their dogs having mange - give slight rock sulphur with its food daily for 15 days and rub any light hair oil, adding menthol in it or rub Vicks Vaporub ( but it is costly). You will find the miracle.

Hi my name is Cari and my blue pit has mange. He has bumps on his legs tail ears and snout. He keeps scratching at it and he's starting to loose fur.I'd take him to the vet but I keep reading that you spend hundreds of dollars on medication that really just brings it back up after you've used all of it up. I started the borax method about two days ago but I'm worried because he keeps licking his fur after. I read your post online and was wondering if you can substitute canola oil instead of vegetable oil, or any other home remedies that I could try?

The wonderful Theresa from Minneapolis, MN has been helping pet owners and their beloved pets around the world on Earth Clinic since 2013.

About Theresa

Theresa from Minneapolis was born and raised in the inner city, always wishing she had been raised on a farm.

Her love for creatures great and small began at an early age, starting with caterpillars - which continues to this day, along with an interest in all insects and 'creepy crawlies'.

Theresa's interest in pet health started with a bird keeping hobby at age 14, where she learned from another hobbyist that the simple addition of Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV) in a bird's drinking water kept fungal infections away; she was able to share this with her avian vet who in turn prescribed it to her own clients; Theresa was surprised to learn that she could teach her vet a thing or two. This important lesson - that each of us can be a teacher - was a turning point for Theresa, and fueled her quest for the knowledge held in lore, and remedies passed by word of mouth. That quest for knowledge continues to this day, as new and old remedies alike are explored. She may not have experience with a particular issue, but she will research it to the best of her ability and share what she finds freely, in the hopes that you can heal or improve your pet's health.

Hey Cari,

Please try Ted's Mange Remedy - it works very well for most skin conditions as well as mange. Please also consider dietary changes - read the ingredients on your bag of kibble and if you see corn or grain it is time to change the diet. Corn has been directly linked to skin problems in dogs. Please also consider alkalizing your dog's drinking water by using baking soda, or also Ted's Borax Protocol for dogs; the baking soda and borax will help address systemic yeast/leaky gut, which is another major contributor to food sensitivities/allergies and skin issues in dogs.

PLEASE don't use Veg or Corn Oil on your pet!! Watch ANY video about how its made and you'll realize its no bueno for you either! They should call it "frankenoil". DNA damage and inflammation are two things it causes, just off the top of my head. For this mange cure, please use Olive Oil, Coconut Oil, Neem Oil, Castor Oil (ie anything BUT veg oil) and you'll get the same results, but without any cellular damage! Ted's remedy was not working on my Leo. He became terrified when he saw me making the solution, and after no sign of improvement after 4 baths, I decided to try this. Its only been 2 days so far and I can see improvement! And way less itching. This site is the best. Stay well, everybody!
