disinfecting stables

[UKa]

Any recommendations for disinfectant for my stable?

Is there one that is available just in normal shop/ supermarket not horse shop?

Any disinfectant will do, I use whatever is on offer in the supermarket.

I tend to do my wooden stables on a really hot day and use blacks which stinks. I use a powered jet hose. I choose good warm weather with a nice bit of wind and I want the stables to dry quickly and not lock any further bacteria into the wood.

I normally buy a gallon container from a supermarket, the cheapest they have & use that. When the weather is bad & floors won't dry I use Jeyes Binfresh, the powder jeyes that is normally used in wheely bins. Just sprinkle, leave for a while & then broom up.

i have used jeyes but you need to dilute it first or it leaves black marks. and you can never get it out of your clothes it stains

Virkon..... you only need one sachet and its a proper disinfectant not just something that smells good from the supermarket.

Please follow the instructions though as its powerful!

Field guard do a green gloop which is fantastic. Just a word of warning DO NOT use jeyes fluid if you have cats it is absolutely lethal to them
