White Rhino - Housing Disinfectant (Hydrated Cubicle Lime)
White Rhino Hydrated Lime has a pH of 12.35. It immediately increases the pH of surface areas covered and deactivates mastistis causing bacteria. White Rhino Hydrated Lime will sustain pH levels of treated areas for lasting animal protection.
Absorbs 15 times more moisture than standard cubicle limestone/hydrated lime blends
pH of 12.35 versus a max pH of 8.3 for standard cubicle limestone
Covers up to 3 times more surface than standard cubicle limestone
White Rhino Hydrated Lime has a pH of 12.35 and so is highly effective in deactivating E.coli, Salmonella, Staphylococcal and Streptococcal (mastitis causing bacteria). It’s easy to apply, does not burn and reacts immediately to increase pH. Standard cubicle lime has a maximum pH of just 8.3 and therefore is not effective in deactivating harmful bacteria.
- Reduces lameness in cattle
- Prevents mastitis causing bacteria – Research study indicates 50% less staphylococcal and 45% less streptococcal bacteria than those bedded with standard cubicle lime.
