Avian Influenza Preventative Biosecurity Measures

The effective control of infectious disease is necessary to ensure
economic success in any livestock industry. The cost of disease can destroy
an industry and devastate an economy. Avian Influenza is a viral
disease predominantly affecting chickens and turkeys and potentially capable
of causing some of the most dramatic losses and costs of any poultry
disease.

It is caused by an orthomyxovirus, or influenza virus which can survive
for considerable lengths of time outside of the host with birds being
infected through contact with other birds, mechanical vectors such as
vehicles and equipment and personnel travelling between farms, markets
and abattoirs.
Precautionary requirements established by the UK’s Department for
Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) determined that effective
cleaning and disinfection of premises and the establishment of a Biosecurity
barrier helps to prevent spread of disease.

RillSun Animal Health Solutions (RAHS) specializes in the environmental
control of highly infectious diseases like Avian Influenza and has

spread of such diseases.
