I know one or two who use it for sheep and chooks but know nothing about it.

I'm using StalosanF which seems to do the same job.

I've used this (mines just called Biosuper) for my chooks and sheep for the past 15 months - don't need to use much so it's the same bag too and I've still half left Very Happy

. It's a fine powder and can be used with the chooks/sheep around with no side effects but it kills bacteria, neutralises amonia , and kills nasties such as coccidiosis. It's expensive but a little goes a long way and I swear by it! I use it in the chook house before putting down shavings and in nest boxes, in the run when it gets a bit manky and in between straw layers when lambing. I have a friend that also uses it on her lawn after her dog has "been" to make it safe for her children to play on it. I get mine from my local feed store and have had the pleasure of speaking to the maker to make sure that it is safe for chooks.

I'll phone Adrian and find out if there is a French supplier for you. The info on the pack only gives the Harbro people. Where exactly are you and how on earth do you pronounce it Laughing

? - Welsh is so much easier Laughing
