Description
Repiderma spray is a multi-purpose aerosol spray with true sticking properties. It is non-antibiotic so it reduces antibiotic resistance in your herd. This makes treatments more effective, and it is also suitable for organic herds. It is ideal for applying on its own for small, early stage digital dermatitis lesions.
According to the National Animal Disease Information Service (NADIS), Digital dermatitis is ‘an infectious condition of the foot caused by bacteria’.
Digital dermatitis is a lesion which you will find at the back of the hoof. It is very easy to identify because it is a large growth. It is more common in wet weather when cattle are indoors.
These lesions can appear like ulcers or warts and are otherwise known as strawberry-like lesions just above the heels in cattle. It is highly infectious and can cause extreme pain and discomfort.
Digital dermatitis can limit intake and reduce performance. If left untreated, it can eventually cause extreme lameness and lack of mobility in cattle.
The best way to deal with digital dermatitis is to prevent it with regular footbathing. However, if it is affecting your cattle, the best way to treat it is to spot it early and respond with effective topical treatments, like Repiderma.
