Application of Diluted Optima Concentrate
IMPORTANT: Do not mix Optima Concentrate or diluted Optima

pre-cleaned and bears the proper container labeling for Optima
Concentrate.
If product in dip cup becomes visibly dirty, discard contents and replenish
with diluted product. Do not reuse or return any unused product to the
original container.
Before Milking: Wash teats thoroughly just prior to next milking with
appropriate udder wash solution or pre-milking teat dip to avoid
contamination of milk. Teats should then be dried with single-service
towels. Use proper procedures for udder washing or pre-dipping.
Directions for Teat Dipping
Pre-Milk Dipping: Fill teat dip cup with diluted Optima Concentrate. Before
each cow is milked, dip each teat full-length into the teat dip cup
containing diluted Optima Concentrate. Wipe teats dry after dipping, using
single-service towels to avoid contamination of milk.
Post-Milk Dipping: Immediately after each milking, dip each teat
full-length into the teat dip cup containing diluted Optima Concentrate.
Allow to air dry. Do not wipe. Always use fresh, diluted Optima Concentrate.
Do not turn cows out in freezing weather until teat dip is completely dry.
Directions for Teat Spraying
Pre-Milk Spraying: Before each cow is milked, spray entire teat with
diluted Optima Concentrate. Wipe teats after spraying using single-service
towels to avoid contamination of milk.
Post-Milk Spraying: Immediately after each milking, spray entire teat with
diluted Optima Concentrate. Allow to air dry. Do not wipe. Always use fresh,
diluted Optima Concentrate. Do not turn cows out in freezing weather until
diluted Optima Concentrate is completely dry.
Expanded Usage: When freshening cows, begin dipping teats twice daily
for about 10 days before calving.
PRECAUTION:Optima Concentrate is not intended to cure or help the
healing of chapped or irritated teats. As with any germicide, irritation or
sensitization may occur in sensitive animals. In case of teat irritation or
chapping, have the condition examined and, if necessary, treated by a
veterinarian.
