Nobody wants to finish milking and be covered in iodine or the latest color of teat dip, but it happens to the best of us. Whether it’s the cows kicking while you’re trying to apply dip or you spill while filling the dispenser, you’re bound to end up covered in dairy cow supplies. Not only that, but you have to regularly stock up on two dairy cow supplies- dips and wipes. Why couldn’t there be an easier, more user-friendly way to dip teats? A new milking technology, dairy wipes, is just that. Its ease of use, efficiency, and convenience makes it one of the must-have dairy cow supplies for farmers sick of dealing with the regular dips. Check out our top reasons to try using dairy wipes rather than the old, multi-step teat dips:
-
One-Step Process - Don’t waste time with the two-step process of pre-dipping and drying. Use dairy wipes for a simple one step process. Simply wipe the teat area, and the cow is set for milking in just seconds. No waiting in between dipping and wiping - it’s all done with one pass of the dairy wipe.
-
Convenient - Forget the confusion and hassle of those other dairy cow supplies. No mixing, no measuring, no filling pesky dipping bottles, dispensers, or sprayers. Dairy wipes come in a convenient bucket with a dispenser at the top for easy grab and go use. You’ll stay clean and dry and won’t end milking covered head to toe with teat dip stains. The pre-soaked wipes don’t make a mess and make your life easier.
-
Effective - Dairy wipes are very effective at eliminating mastitis causing organisms such as S. aureus, S. agalactiae, E. coli, S. uberis, and K. pneumoniae. Some wipes can reduce these organisms by 99.9% with proper wiping.
-
Energy Cost Reduction - If you’re using dairy cow supplies such as microfiber towels or other repeated use towels, you’re increasing your electric bill by using the washer and dryer every day. Or maybe you’ve even outsourced your farm’s laundry care and are paying to have someone else do the work. Either way, it’s an unnecessary expense. With dairy wipes, you just discard the wipe after one use. No washing, no drying, no extra hassle.
-
Safe -Dairy wipes don’t contain harmful chemicals or dyes, leaving the teat clean and well-conditioned. You also aren’t risking cross contamination as you would with a dipper or other dairy cow supplies. It’s one wipe per cow so no contagious bacterium spreads from animal to animal.
-
Durable - The strong, thick towels won’t easily tear like your ordinary paper towel. This durability allows the wipes to pick up dirt and debris from the teat that paper towels often miss.
-
Labor Reduction - Prepping cows is faster than with a regular dip because you don’t have to dry. With dairy wipes you won’t need extra labor to get the milking routine done in a timely manner.
-
Time Management - Reduce the length of milking time by simply taking out a step. Don’t dry any more teats. With dairy wipes all your prepping is one-step allowing you to finish milking quicker and get on with the rest of your day.
-
Conditions Teats - Teats are soft and conditioned after use of dairy wipes. Some wipes include extra conditioning ingredients, while others simply just don’t use the harsh chemicals which leave teats dry and chapped.
-
Environmentally Friendly - Most wipes are biodegradable making it a great environmental option.
