STEP FOUR

Package for shipping by using a ziplock style bag or paper bag -  please cut slices or holes in the sides to allow for air flow if using plastic. Horses can carry fungal spores on their hair and when in an enclosed, air tight environment these spores can live for a very long time and be life threatening if inhaled.
