TECHNICAL DATA SHEET DAIRY
Introduction
Mistral was developed to reduce moisture and ammonia in pens and holding areas. Moisture contamination is responsible for the development of molds, bacteria and fungus, while ammonia is the leading cause of respiratory problems.
Mistral reduces environmental pathogens, which are a major cause of mastitis.
Mistral contains oils to prevent the excessive drying of skin and hooves.
Product Description

Sold in 55-pound bags.
Ingredients
Seaweed Concentrates, Vegetal Adsorbents, Montmorillonite Clay, Alginates, Essential Oils.

When should MISTRAL Be Used?
Moisture changes constantly due to a variety of housing conditions, therefore frequency of application can vary from once every day, to once every several days.
MISTRAL will disperse the adsorbed moisture into the air and return the powder to its original adsorbing property until the saturation level is reached.
Bedding life will be increased by two to three times.
How Fast Will MISTRAL Work?
The adsorption of the moisture by MISTRAL will happen immediately upon contact.
