Dr. O., Formaldehyde has toxic fumes, doesn't it? And is it a known carcinogen? If so, why do you prefer to use it rather than another sole hardener? An acquaintance who used to use a 20% formaldehyde solution to toughen his horses' soles discontinued use for the above two reasons. Do you find it more effective than the other solutions/preparations mentioned above? Thanks, Holly

I have not found anything that works half as well Holly. We have an article that addresses these problems and makes suggestions to avoid complications with its use see, » Equine Medications and Nutriceuticals » Antibiotics and Antimicrobials » Formaldehyde and Formalin Use. DrO
