Teat Sealing
Professional Teat Sealing
Teat sealing is a preventive herd health service designed to protect teats during the dry period. Proper teat sealing helps reduce the risk of infection and supports udder health before the next lactation.
Why Teat Health Is Important ?
Healthy teats are essential for maintaining udder health and milk quality. During the dry period, teats are more vulnerable to bacterial entry, which can lead to infections.
Teat sealing provides an effective barrier, helping protect the teat canal and supporting a healthier start to the next lactation.
