Madam:- Although there are no published trials on the use of teat sanitizers to control pscudocowpox in dairy herds, field observations in New Zealand suggest that teat dipping with iodophor may help control outbreaks. However, it is not known whether this treatment prevents new pseudocowpox virus infections or enhances healing of lesions. Three main types of teat sanitizers are currently available in New Zealand and the present study was planned to evaluate these teat sanitizers for the prevention and treatment of pseudocowpox virus lesions.
