- Directions For Use
For optimal performance of ParlorPal® and to gain the maximum health and performance benefits for cows, the following application procedures are recommended.
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR DAIRY FOOTBATH FOR pH REDUCTION
- Apply ParlorPal® directly to the footbath at a rate of 15 to 25 lbs. per 50 gallons of water.
- Recharge footbath with ParlorPal® every 250-400 cows.
- Use ParlorPal® footbath 2-4 days per week.
- Use higher dosage rate with high pH supply water. ParlorPal® is fully compatible with copper sulfate use in shuttle or as a replacement for copper sulfate. It improves the availability of copper sulfate when used in combination.
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR BEDDING
- Apply ParlorPal® to free stall or tie stall bedding daily.
- Apply ParlorPal® at a rate of 3 to 6 lbs. per 100 square feet.
- Concentrate the application on the lower part of the stall where udder contact occurs most commonly. ParlorPal® is suitable for use on composted manure, sand, recycled sand, shavings and many other bedding materials.
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR CALF PENS FOR pH REDUCTION
- Before bedding materials (shavings, straw, etc.) are applied, apply ParlorPal® to the dirt pad at a rate of 10 to 15 lbs. per 100 sq. ft. under the calf hutch or pen.
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR AMMONIA AND ODOR CONTROL
- After spreading bedding material, re-apply ParlorPal® three times per week at a rate of 3 lbs. per 100 sq. ft. of calf pen bedding and any adjacent wet areas to reduce odors that attract flies. Excessive moisture and/or temperature will necessitate more frequent reapplication.
OTHER LIVESTOCK
- ParlorPal® may be used to control ammonia and odor in horse or ruminant livestock pens or stalls.
