Description
Versatile On-Farm Antiseptic Application
Beyond vital newborn navel care, Nettex Agri Iodine 10% Plus Solution serves as a highly reliable, broad-spectrum skin disinfectant across a wide array of daily farm operations. Its strong formulation rapidly kills bacteria, viruses, and fungi on contact, making it an indispensable emergency addition to your veterinary cupboard.
Key Technical Benefits & Features
-
10% Active Iodine Concentration: Twice the strength of standard 5% topical iodine solutions, offering maximum antimicrobial kill rates.
-
Fast-Drying Spirit Base: Alcohol/spirit vehicle evaporates rapidly, speeding up the natural drying and shriveling process of fresh umbilical cords.
-
Rapid Navel Sealing: Effectively closes off the umbilical canal within hours of birth, drastically reducing cases of joint ill, navel ill, and systemic infections.
-
Broad-Spectrum Hygiene: Rapidly eradicates pathogenic bacteria, spores, fungi, and viruses on skin wounds, tail docks, and castration sites.
-
Economical 2.5 Litre Pack: Generous fluid volume equips your lambing sheds or maternity pens for high-density seasonal stock drops.
Recommended Application Protocols
| Application Profile | Target Animal / Area | Recommended Usage Protocol |
| Newborn Navel Care | Calves, Lambs, Piglets, Foals | Submerge the entire umbilical cord into a clean dip cup filled with undiluted solution immediately after birth. Repeat 4 to 6 hours later if the cord remains thick or wet. |
| Minor Wound & Skin Care | All Livestock & Horses | Clean debris from the affected area, then apply or spray undiluted to disinfect minor cuts, abrasions, or foot punctures. |
| Post-Processing Care | Lambs / Piglets | Dab or spray onto fresh tail docking or castration sites to prevent secondary bacterial skin infections. |
⚠ Handling Best Practices & Biosecurity:
-
Always use a fresh, non-returnable dip cup for each newborn to prevent cross-contaminating the main 2.5L jug with barn bacteria.
-
Keep container tightly sealed when not in use—the spirit-based alcohol vehicle will evaporate if left exposed to open air.
-
Store in a cool, dark room away from direct heat sources and naked flames.
