Mastitis Prevention with EnviroProtect
A completely new bedding treatment for Mastitis Control uses natural bacteria and enzymes to out compete pathogens in cubicle bedding. This is a revolutionary system For cubicle beds. Clean up the environment permanently using a monthly dose of "BED BUGS" - friendly bacteria and enzymes which create conditions cows like and pathogens don't. Coliform organisms are found everywhere in the environment and are concentrated in slurry. Coliforms are a wide range of bacteria that can cause mild infections or severe acute toxic mastitis frequently resulting in death. If your herd has a low somatic cell count, then it is likely that the majority of clinical mastitis is going to be environmental in origin. Most environmental infections will occur at the period of greatest environmental challenge, which will be during the housing period. If the majority of mastitis occurs at this time, it is most likely to be due to coliforms and/or Strep. uberis bacteria. A herd with a high cell count with the majority of clinical mastitis occurring during the winter months would indicate two problems … a contagious mastitis problem causing the high cell count and environmental mastitis. |
