Common misunderstandings in disinfection of chicken coop

Chicken is one of the most common poultry animals in the world, and chicken breeding is also the most important breeding project in our country. Raising chickens requires us to take good care of them and have a correct management method, otherwise there will be many problems. Among them, chicken house disinfection is a necessary work, but many friends have a lot of misunderstandings in disinfection. So what are the common misunderstandings in disinfection? Let's take a look at it with the editor.

1. Disinfection is not comprehensive

There are three methods of chicken house disinfection, each of which can effectively prevent the spread of different pathogens through different ways, but can not replace each other. For example, some friends think that drinking disinfectant to chickens can effectively isolate all diseases. In fact, it is wrong, the main prevention direction of drinking water disinfection is gastrointestinal diseases, but can not prevent respiratory diseases. Therefore, when we disinfect, we must reasonably use three disinfection methods to achieve comprehensive disinfection, cut off the spread of all diseases and reduce the incidence of disease.

2. Discontinuous disinfection

Many farmers do not have a reasonable disinfection interval during disinfection, and sometimes even disinfect their work intermittently. In fact, the disinfection work is continuous in the whole growth period of the chicken, and the frequency and time of each disinfection method have certain requirements. For example, disinfection of chickens can only be carried out during the rearing period of about 20-21 days. Because premature disinfection will not only change the temperature of the chicken house, but also have a certain impact on the early epidemic prevention of chicks. Therefore, when we disinfect, we should not only adhere to disinfection, but also reasonably control the disinfection time and interval.

3. Improper disinfectant

There are many kinds of disinfectants for disinfection in chicken coops, but some people use the same disinfectant for a long time for convenience or even cheapness. Using the same kind of disinfectant will not only make the bacteria resistant, reduce the effect of the disinfectant, but also affect the growth of chickens. Therefore, when we choose disinfectant, we should choose at least two or more disinfectants to use in rotation. And it should be noted that observe the composition of the disinfectant, do not choose different companies but the same efficacy of the disinfectant. With different ingredients, the disinfection direction of the disinfectant will naturally change.

4. Concentration of disinfectant solution

The concentration of disinfectant is also a misunderstanding that often occurs when many people disinfect. They think that the higher the concentration of disinfectant, the stronger the efficacy. In fact, too high concentration will not only waste disinfectant, but also may dissolve the feeding equipment in the chicken coop, and may even have a negative effect on chickens. And the higher the concentration of some disinfectants, the efficacy will decline, but also increase the humidity in the henhouse, affecting the growth of chickens. Therefore, we should control the concentration of disinfectant, increase the dosage when the environment is suitable, when the disease is high, encounter rainy and low temperature, and reduce the dosage during the brooding period, so as to ensure the normal growth of chickens.

The above is a brief introduction to the common misunderstanding of disinfection in chicken sheds. Disinfection is a necessary work in the process of raising chickens, which can restrain the spread of germs and reduce the incidence of disease. However, improper disinfection will not only not protect the growth of chickens, but also pose a certain threat, so we must pay attention to it.
