Which “Ultra Dri” product is best for me?

 

Many farmers, smallholders and equestrians use absorbent bedding material to soak up excess moisture and to help to keep beds dry. Straw, sand or shavings beds are commonly used or rubber mats or mattresses, topped with a fine layer of the removable bedding. However, not all bedding materials are suitable for modern livestock housing.

Straw is not always ideal as it can block slats and form a thick crust on the slurry store. Shavings and sawdust can vary in grade from fine and dusty to abrasive, neither of which is ideal for livestock. In addition to this is the problem of the bedding being wet and slow to dry. This, of course, offers bacteria the ideal breeding environment. This is also where disinfectant powder comes into its own, both soaking up the moisture and killing the bacteria.

Sand is an effective deep bedding material as it doesn’t contain organic matter. However, neither is it very absorbent and, again, it can be very coarse and abrasive on firm beds. It is also unsuitable in most slurry systems.

Ultra Dri Disinfectant Powder Variations

Ultra Dri

Our standard Ultra Dri is a general purpose absorbent, dry disinfectant powder with a pleasant aroma containing a DEFRA approved disinfect which enables it to act as an effective bactericide, fungicide and viricide. Ultra Dri gold is very similar in make-up to our standard Ultra Dri. The only difference being a larger amount of disinfectant is present. We recommend this for use when problems arise i.e. Mastitis.
