[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1387242, member: 25884"] Yeah, you're right, I wasn't thinking as I wrote. We have used new motor oil before. The whole idea is to SMOTHER the fungus. I find that vaseline is cheap, easy to keep at the barn and doesn't smell so the animal doesn't get bothered by an unfamiliar smell. I've used stuff from the vet, over the counter stuff and find that cheaper is as good for something like that. When we do use the "new" motor oil, I have an old fuzzy paint brush that I just paint it on with so that it doesn't get slopped all over the animal. Also, I guess I said old since I save all my oil containers and drain them into one like from when we change oil in a vehicle. Do you realize how much oil doesn't come out of those plastic 1 qt and gallon jugs? My son says I am cheap, but then when he needs some to oil some chains, like on the baler, he always calls and says bring one of my oil jugs.....I can actually manage to collect a qt from a couple of gallons.
