Notes by the
(B y John J. Inskeep, County
Agent
This third and final section ot
the three part series on foot rot
in sheep deals with drugs
used
fo r foot rot treatment and
con
trol and eradication of foot
rot
as advocated by Australian’s Dr.
Blaine McGowan, School of Vet
erinary Medicine, University of
California is the author o f
this
fine article, reprinted from the
National Wool Growers Magazine
of August, 1958:
“ Drugs used for foot-rot treat
ment:
‘ For years the old stand
by drug for treating foot rot
in
sheep has been
copper sulfate
(bluestone.) The main advant
ages of this drug are that it is rel
atively inexpensive, it is a good
disinfectant, and it has some dry
ing and healing properties.
Its
disadvantages are that it
stains
the wool, and feet that have been
through copper sulfate
two or
three times become very hard and
therefore difficult to trim furth
er. When used for a foot bath
it should be mixed at apppximate-
ly 30 percent concentration
or
three pounds sopper sulfate per
gallon o f water.
“ Formalin is used in Australia
as a 5 percent foot bath fo r foot
rot largely because it does
not
have the staining and deteriorat
ing action on the wool that copper
sulfate has. It is nearly as
e f
fective as copper sulfate but may
be irritating to the skin of
the
sheep and to people coming
in
contact with it.
