From our own research there appears to be 6 main types of sarcoids of which we always say should be seen by a vet first to find out your options.

We have seen with our own eyes the dramatic effect a neem treatment can have on sarcoids in reducing the sarcoids themselfs and after 3-4 months they have dissapeared to our amazement.
 We must stress there is no clinical trials known on this form of treatment of sarcoids its just our own findings but with Neem descibed as safe as honey and definate benifits to bringing horses immune system back it all looks very positive. Not only this but it certainly gives the horse massive relief.

*Occult Sarcoid
    Right Arrow These usually appear as grey hairless, often circular or roughly circular areas. Occasionally the only change may be a subtle change in the hair coat colour, thickness and density. They are commonest on the face, armpit, inside thigh and groin areas.

*Verrucose Sarcoid
    Right Arrow These are grey, scabby or warty in appearance, and sometimes have small shot-like, solid nodules within them. There may be some ulceration of the surface exposing red, fleshy tissue underneath. They can be well defined or cover large, ill-defined areas. They are commonest in the face, groin, sheath, and armpit areas.

*Nodular sarcoid
    Right Arrow Discreet solid nodules of variable size are common under the skin in the eyelid, armpit, inside thigh and groin regions.
    Right Arrow They can be single or multiple (often they can be present in hundreds)
    Right Arrow Many have no skin involvement (the skin can be moved freely over the surface) but some are firmly attached to the overlying skin (the skin cannot be moved over the surface of the nodule).
    Right Arrow Some ulcerate and form bleeding exudative masses.

*Fibroblastic Sarcoid
    Right Arrow Fleshy masses, sometimes with a thin pedicle or with a wide flat base that commonly bleed easily. They may have a wet, haemorrhagic surface.
    Right Arrow They are common at almost every site and may develop quickly from a milder form following damage (however slight). They also commonly develop at the site of skin injuries on the limbs.

*Mixed Sarcoid
    Right Arrow Variable mixtures of two or more of the other types.
    Right Arrow They can develop at any site but are commonest on the head, armpit and groin.

*Malevolent Sarcoid
    Right Arrow This is the most aggressive type in which the tumours spread extensively through the skin with cords of tumour tissue interspersed with nodules and ulcerating fibroblastic lesions.
    Right Arrow There are often some overlying verrucose and occult lesions.
    Right Arrow It is a rare form but is most commonly encountered in the elbow and face areas.


Application and Dose

Apply neem oil directly daily to the sarcoid while feeding 3oz of neem leaf granules - please dont feed more than 3oz neem leaf asfeeding  this for some reason is not as powerfull when more than 3oz is fed.

Neem leaf has a very bitter taste so we recomend feeding in a mix or something like molasis to disguise it

we carry stocks of either 150g to trial then 1kg bags of Neem Leaf


Its also agood idea to photograph the sarcoids then again a month of treatment so you can see the difference as you dont always notice as much when you see them everyday.
we always welcome photographic evidence as this helps us in further treatment of indevidual sarcoids on different horses.

Please note we do not claim any clinical trials in the UK or European countries and Natures Neem and or staff are in no way qualified in any vetinary field. if in doubt consult with your local Vet.
