Luvachicken Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 Each time I use the stalosan, I spray the area with the hosepipe first and sprinkle the stalosan and leave it overnight. Then I let the girls out the next morning. The thing is, some of the stalosan is still on their patio area. Should I have swept it before letting them out ? My sister worried me slightly, when I said 2 of them had colds, and she said it could be because I left the powder there on the floor. Is she right ?

Lavenders_Blue Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 Stalosan is safe to use with birds present so no need to sweep it up. I sprinkle fairly liberally all over my run and also in the coop this time of year when it's difficult to poultry shield the coop and dry it out.

LottyJ1 Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Yep I sprinkle it in the coop and all over the floor in the WIR to freshen it up and kill nasties! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superkitty Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 I'm a liberal Stalosan-sprinkler too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 They'll be fine; most of the powdered livestock disinfectants are made to be used with the animals present. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reikiranf Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 I wash the slabs down and let them dry as much as possible before I put the Stalosan down, then I put the hemcore down on top of it, to be honest the worst side effect I've noticed is my girlies having pink legs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chocolateeclaire Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 I just love stalosan and chuck it everywhere often over the rabbits who get in the way!! It is also good on the straw bales that I have for the rabbits and chickens to sit on and pink bales of straw are quite fetching!!

coco Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 I'm an avid stalosan sprinkler too. I have to wait until the girls are in bed as if I do it when they are i the run they look terrified. I even use it in the rabbits litter tray. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bramble Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 Sorry to crash the post, but just wondered how often I can/should use stalosan please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 Either when you muck out or once a week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
