Bloat Guard is to be consumed daily. Bloat Guard should be fed as a top dressing on individual rations of ground feed, starting 2 or 3 days before animals are exposed to bloat-producing conditions. The higher dosage levels are recommended when bloat-producing conditions are severe.
Repeat the feeding of Bloat Guard when animals are exposed to bloatproducing conditions more than 12 hours from the last feeding of Bloat Guard, but do not exceed the higher dosage levels in any 24-hour period.
If your animals do not accept Bloat Guard readily, stir the recommended amount into their feed. After animals become accustomed to the change in diet, use Bloat Guard as a top dressing.
Caution: It is essential that each animal consumes the total recommended dosage of Bloat Guard daily for adequate protection.
