We conducted a study to evaluate the effectiveness of tea tree oil (TTO) in treating equine ringworm caused by Trichophyton equinum. In this trial, 60 horses were divided into two groups; one received a TTO mixture, and the other was treated with a conventional antifungal.
After 15 days of treatment, both groups showed positive results, with complete healing observed in all the treated animals. This suggests that tea tree oil can be a viable natural alternative for managing ringworm, complementing traditional therapies, especially for those interested in herbal options.

Multi-use antifungal

This essential oil is excellent, of very good quality, and the size lasts a long time. I use it in various ways, particularly as an antifungal for toenail fungus and Ringworm. As someone who does a lot of sports and sweats frequently, I've had these issues. The aroma is lovely and fresh, providing a sense of cleanliness. Its benefits are numerous, though its composition isn't wholly pure since it contains some alcohol; nonetheless, it’s still effective. While it may cause some sensitivity on wounds, I recommend it as it works well for my needs. This is an honest opinion; it genuinely helps.

Nail growth success

I inherited tinea unguium from my parents but was hesitant about oral medication, which didn’t help for years. I don’t recommend it as an all-encompassing solution, but after scraping off the cloudy nails and applying tea tree oil daily, my nails grew beautifully without new bacterial growth. However, I’m concerned about the long-term application, particularly on my skin, though it may continue to benefit my nails.
