Location: Coarsegold, CA | Does anyone have a safe method to remove tar weed from horses faces, forelocks, legs & tails (without losing hair) that they have tried and it really works? I read online that simplegreen works (according to their website), but am concerned about trying something like that around or near a horse's eyes. Any help you could give me would be great. |

Location: Odenville, Alabama | I'm not familiar with Tar Weed, but at one time we used creosote treated fence boards and when it got hot, the "gunk" would get on the horses. I went to the grocery and got a 1lb brick of lard and rubbed it on the creosote. It came off great. Give it a try! alot less caustic than simple green! Nancy |

Location: Novato, California | I have tarweed in my pasture, which I've been trying to get rid of for years. I spend hours pulling it. Now I mow the pasture every two weeks. I use Animal Legends shampoo on the horses. I works if you don't rinse it off immediately but work it in with a dish scrubber. I've also tried dish washing soap.
Any suggestions on getting rid of tarweed?
