Premium Hoof Treatment
Mat 72” x 36” is great for treating hoof and foot problems.
Hoof and foot problems
including hard-to-treat hairy wart are the biggest cause of milk production
losses--make Hoofmat your first line of defense. Unlike the conventional foot
bath Hoof Treatment Mat is a strong poly mesh covered high-density foam mat that
pushes treatment solution into the hoof via hydraulic action. The benefits of
this system are numerous.
- They are easy to install. Hoof
Treatment Mat is made with an extra-heavy poly mesh covering
channel-stitched to a high density inner foam liner. Placed at the
entrance to the milking area on a level surface Hoofmat is soaked with
treatment solution then lifted at day’s end for rinsing and drying.
Solution is fresh every day.
- They stay clean. Manure is simply
scraped off the surface. Urine runs off the surface of a filled mat. Blue
mesh covering stays new-looking even after repeated use and the lifetime
of the mat is over 100,000 cow passes.
- They are effective. Treatment
solution is forced up through toes by hydraulic pressure created by the
hoof’s weight on the liquid-filled mat. This good coverage enables the
solution to be the most effective – even on stubborn hairy wart.
- They are accepted by cows. Cows
show no reluctance to walk over Hoof Treatment Mat as they may with foot
baths. One 9-gallon fill of the Premium Hoof Treatment Mat will treat
approximately 80-100 cows.
Placed at the entrance
to the milking area the full benefit of Hoof Treatment Mat is appreciated.
Walking over the mat before milking allows penetration of the treatment liquid
during the milking time before cows return to wet or dirty conditions. Premium
Hoof Treatment Mat weighs 10 lbs. (dry) and has a capacity of approx. 9
gallons.
