Coconut oil for pet supplies

Coconut oil and Monoi de Tahiti have well been established as a great alternative to many animals ailments.

Monoi Australia is extremely excited to have brought to the market a specific oil for our four legged friends: Monoi AO SILK, 125ml.

There are various examples of the benefits for your dog, cat, horse or any other of your pets.

Sweet Itch or Queensland Itch

The application of one of Monoi AO Silk from Monoi Australia is effective against a horse's nightmare: Queensland Itch, as well known as Summer Itch or Sweet Itch.
A horse owner reported that within 2 days of the application of Monoi AO Silk, the horse's irritation was completely gone, no more new bites and itchiness. Within 7 days all infections were gone and the hair completely regrown.
To the satisfaction of the horse's owner, this was the cheapest and most effective treatment for Queensland Itch (Summer Itch or Sweet Itch), that she experienced.


Sweet itch preventative treatments can vary from $90 to $200 per month, from internal preventative treatments on offer to just topical applications. Prevention of sweet itch comes back down to making sure midges or mosquitoes do not bite the skin creating allergies or itching.

Now, some food for thought: as demonstrated on this website the remarkable skin moisturising, hair repairing and now insect repelling properties of Monoi de Tahiti, all animal's lovers spending thousands of dollars on their animal, hair, skin and comfort, you could actually be saving yourself a lot of money by using Monoi de Tahiti and still achieving the results desired.

In fact it is common in Tahiti for Monoi de Tahiti to be mixed with citronella, basil or tamanu oil, as they enhance the insect repellent properties and efficiency.
The evidence of Monoi de Tahiti’s properties as a natural insect repellent can be extended to the animal world too.

After all horses, dogs, goats or cats can suffer from the same effects and irritation from insects bites, therefore can benefit from this property, at a far less expensive price. As all animal owners are fully aware, when it come to animal products, although being sometimes the same as human the price is triple for no apparent reasons.
Treat your horse, dog or cat: use Monoi de Tahiti for their skin or hair treatment and as a natural insect repellent.
Should your favourite animal get bitten, infected, itch or get sore, you apply tamanu oil on the wound, as tamanu oil's properties for skin repair, anti bacterial and anti inflammatory properties can benefit your four legged friend.

Would it take much need of convincing to extend this principle to issues like bed's mites or dog's mites itch and similar related occurrences?

Queensland itch is also know as sweet itch or summer itch.

It is a skin condition in animals, primarily horses but can be experienced by cows, goats, dogs and other animals, caused by the bites of a tiny midge. These flies are called biting midges, gnats, sand flies, no-see-ums and punkies. The skin ailment is the result of an allergic reaction to the bites of the midge, creating itching, scabbing and loss of hair caused be infections.
The response to bites varies from animals - some react strongly with open, weeping sores while others hardly react at all. The sores are caused by constant rubbing and biting to relieve the itch. These same flies are biting people too, producing intensely itchy lesions as well.

These tiny biting midges are nearly invisible to the human eye, they develop in wet, marshy or swampy areas, the larvae are aquatic or semi-aquatic. Midge infestations tend to be very irregular across fields, high in some areas while absent from other parts. Lack of appropriate drainage will make it the elimination of midges nearly impossible. Instead it is best to use repellents to protect horses from bites and prevent allergic reactions.
Queensland itch is also known as Sweet itch, kasen (Japan), dhobie itch (Philippines) and summer itch.

 

Fleas and Ticks

Fleas and Ticks are parasites living of a host organism (usually an animal), which means they feed of and need the host to survive. Therefore they are very quick to adapt to new environments and like viruses or bacteria have the ability to become resistant to chemical treatments and evolved. Ticks have an exoskeleton (a hard outside shell), which remain the best way of destroying them.

How to treat an infection:

The most abundant natural source of medium chain fatty acids (MCFA) is coconut oil. Studies have shown that like bacteria, viruses and fungi, parasites can not stand up against MCFAs.

Thus, its effectiveness in suffocating the ticks is probably the most reliable natural tool to fight against them. As well, the application of Monoi de Tahiti will benefit the wounds healing caused by the bites.

The most relevant explanation we have found is that these fleas, ticks and head lice are parasites which have an exoskeleton; once the oil is being rub on it, it suffocates the parasite and them becomes deadly to them. This remains the safest and most convenient way of dealing promptly with these parasites.

Healing of wounds:

Research is now verifying many health benefits of coconut oil, which many indigenous communities have long known. In a recent study published in Skin Pharmacology and Physiology, scientists examined the impact of topical coconut oil on wound healing and found that when virgin coconut oil was applied to the wound, it dramatically increased the rate at which wounds heal.

Researchers found that the coconut oil dramatically increased the rate at which the wounds heal by stimulating collagen production and turn-over. Also, new blood vessels formed more quickly in skin treated with virgin coconut oil.

A study, which was undertaken to evaluate the effect of a topical application of virgin coconut oil on wound healing in young rats, involved three sets of experiments with three groups of female Sprague-Dawley rats each consisting of six animals. Group 1 was the control; groups 2 and 3 were treated with 0.5 and 1.0 ml VCO, respectively, 24 hours after wound creation for 10 days. After the experimental period, the healing property of virgin coconut oil was evaluated on the healing process.

Directions of use:

Apply the Monoi oil liberally on the skin and all affected areas.

We recommend using the Monoi AO Silk for all animals, it is all natural we believe it to be safe even if the animal is licking it off and can even be beneficial when ingested too.

Leave the oil on and re-apply as necessary.
