Abstract
Insect hypersensitivity is the most common cause of equine pruritus. It is a seasonal, highly pruritic dermatosis that is caused by the salivary antigens of biting insects. The most common insects are discussed in terms of the area of the horse affected, clinical signs, therapy, and preventative strategies.Entities:
