PROVEN IN TRIALS TO REDUCE DIGITAL DERMATITIS
• | A five month trial undertaken by University of Liverpool School of Veterinary Science has shown that Bolshaw Liquid Foot Care significantly reduces the number of cows with digital dermatitis in dairy herds. |
• | In a direct comparison with a 3% copper sulphate solution, Liquid Foot Care was found to work equally as well. |
• | The number of cows free from any signs of digital dermatitis nearly doubled from 21% to 40% after being treated with Liquid Foot Care. |
• | Works on ‘digi’ and is environmentally friendly and non-hazardous. |

If you’re using Copper Sulphate you are using a non-degradable heavy metal. Disposal is a real problem as it can contaminate land and then get into the food chain. There is growing concern that copper toxicity is building up to unacceptable levels on UK land. |

100% natural, LFC is great for slurry and the land. Going straight into the slurry it will raise the pH level; when spread, this will improve soil conditions and fertility. Typically this will also improve drainage and increase aeration, stabilise the soil structure and reduce the need for fertilisers. |
