GINDOOR Livestock Scratching Brush Pads, 2 Pack, Large Flexible Textured Pads

GINDOOR livestock scratching brush pads give horses and other farm animals a surface to rub against for itch relief and massage, with two pads measuring 21.65 x 19.68 inches (55.0 x 50.0 cm) each.

• Textured soft-touch surface — gives animals a place to rub during seasonal shedding or mosquito-related itching.
• Suitable for cattle, sheep, horses and pigs — made for scratching and massage across several types of livestock.
• Medication can be applied to the pad — its textured spikes help transfer liquid to an animal’s coat.
• Flexible pad design — wraps around a post or corner, or mounts on a plank wall.
• Twenty 1 cm (0.39 in) nails per pad — provides fasteners for installing each pad on a wood surface.

Livestock can rub against these pads when seasonal shedding, mosquitoes or other sources of itching cause discomfort. The design also serves as a surface for applying topical medication, including when an animal has dermatitis. Use the pads in farm settings where animals need a dedicated scratching and massage area.

Which animals can use the GINDOOR scratching pads?

Each pad measures 21.65 inches long by 19.68 inches wide, and the set is intended for cattle, sheep, horses, pigs and other animals. The textured “soft touch” surface is designed for rubbing without damaging the mane or harming the skin. Its hard-wearing construction is made for repeated use.

• Two scratching pads are included.
• The surface provides an area for rubbing and massage.

Can the pads help apply medication?

Yes. Apply medication to the pad’s surface so its textured spikes can help distribute the liquid onto the animal. This offers a way to apply topical medication when caring for an animal with dermatitis, as well as using the pad for scratching.

• The medication is applied to the top of the pad.
• The textured surface helps transfer liquid to the animal.

How do you install and position the pads?

Fasten each pad to a wood surface using the 20 included nails, each 1 cm long. For installation, place the nails in the second row at the pad’s four corners; this positioning is recommended to extend the working life of the brush pile. Pads can be attached together to create a larger scratching area.

• Use on a post, corner or plank wall.
• The flexible pads can wrap around a post or corner.
• They are easy to remove and clean, and are less likely to split when mounted on a plank wall.

These GINDOOR pads suit farm animals that benefit from a place to rub and scratch, and are useful where topical medication needs to be applied through a textured surface. They are sized for livestock use and can be fixed to wood, joined together or positioned around a post or corner.
