Most shoveling officers know that regular deworming is necessary, but they do not pay so much attention to regular disinfection, which may not be done for one or two months. But the bacteria, viruses and parasites in the environment are hidden, once the child contacts or is brought home by the shoveling officer, it may endanger health, while bacteria are also the source of "odor", so disinfection work can not be ignored!
What are the hazards of not disinfecting?
Risk of infectious diseases in dogs
Dog's infectious diseases, such as common parvovirus and canine distemper virus, can be transmitted through feces, respiratory secretion, reproductive tract secretion or urine. Dogs are not vaccinated, even if they stay at home and do not go out, shoveling excrement will inevitably bring pathogens home.
Infectious viruses are very tenacious, and it takes more than one month to lose infectivity in the environment, such as canine parvovirus, which is very cold-resistant in the environment and is ubiquitous. This means that regular disinfection is needed to prevent the virus from surviving in the environment.
Infected with parasites and skin diseases
Dogs go out to play, like to go to lawns and bushes, even eat mud and grass, and go out to play with other dogs, which can lead to parasitic diseases (ear mites, ticks) and skin diseases (pyoderma, fungal dermatitis).
Dogs transmit zoonotic disease
1. Dog's hair, dander, feces and saliva can transmit viruses, bacteria or parasites to shovellers, such as E. coli, Salmonella, Microsporum canis (fungi), Staphylococcus aureus, etc. Of course, the most serious is the spread of rabies virus!
Disinfection needs to be fully in place
Regular disinfection can not only avoid the spread of diseases, but also avoid the odor caused by pathogens from the source and keep the environment fresh.
Choose special disinfectant for pet
1. Human disinfectants are basically powerful chemical ingredients, which are very irritating and need to be diluted before they can be used, which is not practical for pet families.
Disinfect daily necessities at home
Water basins, food basins, toys and combs used by dogs are directly contacted with dogs, soaked or sprayed with disinfectant, and then dried, at least once a week. Shovel officer's shoes also need to be sprayed and disinfected.
Don't be lazy in environmental disinfection.
The home environment should also be disinfected every week, sprayed with disinfectant, or mopped with dilutable chemical disinfectant, while paying attention to quarantine the dog, after disinfection, let the dog move around the home.
Hope that you don't be lazy in shoveling shit, regular disinfection arrangements, so that dogs and you have a safe and hygienic home environment!
