| Details |
Mohanbhai, rich in herbal knowledge, has a deep compassion for animals. For treating cough and cold in cow, he grinds 50 g each of alum, ajmo (Carum copticum L.), lemon leaves and bark of santheda. The mixture is then boiled and sieved. The decoction is given for five days in the morning and evening. In case of spider bite in animals, symptoms like shivering, fever or paralysis may show up. He applies tamarind juice to the inflammed area with a cotton ball to give relief to the animal.
