What makes a good pre-milking teat disinfectant?
<p><span data-contrast="auto">Good pre-milking teat disinfectants contain skin-friendly surfactants that take the product into all the crevices of the teat skin, ensuring speedy soil removal and disinfection. Fast and efficient removal of both gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria is another important consideration. They should also be suitable for all application methods and provide high foaming capabilities to allow lower usage rates. </span><span data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335559739":0,"335559740":240}"> </span><span data-contrast="auto"> </span><span data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335559739":0,"335559740":240}"> </span></p>

<p><span data-contrast="auto">Foaming application can reduce the amount of product used to around 4ml per cow per milking versus 10ml to 15ml per cow when dipping or spraying. This can equate to using 24 liters of product per month (for 100 cows) as opposed to 60 to 90 liters for dipping and spraying.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335559739":0,"335559740":240}"> </span></p>
