Disinfection methods and matters needing attention in quail farms

The pollution source of quail farms is generally the feces produced in the breeding process, in which there are a large number of viruses and microorganisms, which is also the transmission platform of bacteria and viruses. It may be infected with a variety of diseases, affect the growth of quail, reduce the feed utilization rate, and reduce the breeding efficiency, so it is necessary to effectively disinfect and sterilize and cut off the source of infection in the breeding process, which is an indispensable link in the breeding process. So how to disinfect quail farms? Let's take a look.

I. disinfection methods of quail farms

1. Chemical disinfection

When using chemicals to disinfect quail farms, the principle of "three first, three first" should be followed: first disinfect the road for transporting feed, then disinfect the road for manure removal vehicles; first disinfect the young quail house, then disinfect the laying quail house; first disinfect the breeding house, then disinfect the commodity house. In addition, while considering the cost of disinfection agents, disinfection drugs suitable for farms should be used alternately, which not only plays the effect of disinfection, but also reduces the cost of disinfection, and can avoid drug resistance and prolong the use time of a disinfectant. Before disinfection, clean and rinse to prevent the presence of organic matter, and then disinfect the liquid.

2. Physical disinfection

Physical disinfection is mainly through ultraviolet light and ventilation, so as to kill and reduce the number of pathogenic microorganisms in the air, in order to achieve the purpose of disinfection and reduce the incidence of disease.

3. Biological disinfection

This is a disinfection method that uses the high heat produced during the growth and reproduction of thermophilic microorganisms to kill or remove pathogenic microorganisms, accumulating quail faeces so that the temperature is as high as 70 degrees Celsius, thus killing viruses, bacteria and parasite eggs in the feces.

II. Matters needing attention in disinfection

First of all, during disinfection, the operator should wear a good mask, goggles and protective clothing to prevent the liquid from damaging the skin and mucous membrane; then pay attention to the concentration of the disinfectant, which is directly proportional to the disinfection effect, and the greater the concentration, the stronger the disinfection effect, but the greater the concentration, the greater the damage to the quail itself, so the safe and effective concentration should be selected according to the purpose and object of disinfection, and the maximum drug concentration should not be allowed at will. In addition, attention should be paid to disinfectant dosage, environmental temperature and humidity, acidity and alkalinity, all of which directly affect the disinfection effect.
