Usage guide Before replacing your flock: Clean all surfaces and disinfect with Virkon®S – including perches, nest boxes, feed containers and water systems. This will prevent transfer of infectious diseases to new birds.
Regular disinfection: Regularly use a knapsack or fogger to apply a fine mist around the henhouse. This will ensure disinfection of hard-to-reach areas such as corners and grating. Feed equipment: Feed troughs, water equipment etc. should be frequently scrubbed and sprayed with Virkon®S.
