Healthy Hooves® is being used on farms around the world.
Field use proves that at least 500 cows can use a single footbath with Healthy Hooves®/ and 12-15 pounds of copper sulfate before a water change is needed.

​Formaldehyde-based or copper sulfate alone based footbaths lose their biocidal power—125 cows for formaldehyde and 200 cows for copper sulfate. (Will vary by organic material in footbath as cows processed)
 
* After initial 3 weeks @ 15-20 lbs. of copper sulfate reduce copper sulfate to 12-15 lbs.
Note: Healthy Hooves®, copper sulfate and formaldehyde prices may vary by region.
