Directions
To calculate gallon storage capacity, measure and multiply: Length x Width x Depth x 7.5 = Total Gallons
Crusted Manure Systems
DOSAGE: 1 lb. of Activator PLUS per 100 square feet of crusting surface.
Example: 50’ x 200’ = 10,000 sq ft. 10,000 sq ft/2,000 sq ft = 100 lbs of Activator PLUS per treatment (4 bags/pails)
- Break the crust layer (puncture one 10” holes per 500 square feet) before adding Activator PLUS slurry
- Mix 1 lb. of Activator PLUS per 2 gallons of water to create a slurry and pour directly into holes. Disperse product evenly between holes.
- Repeat every 14 days until the crust is liquefied
- After normalization, treat with AgraSpheres or AgraSlats per label directions
Pull Plug/Flush Systems
DOSAGE: 1 pound of ACTIVATOR PLUS per four crates for every 200 square feet of area.
Example: 50’ x 200’ = 10,000 sq ft. 10,000 sq ft/2,000 sq ft = 50 lbs of Activator PLUS per treatment (2 bags/pails)
- After flushing, add 1 inch of water to the pit prior to treating
- Add ACTIVATOR PLUS to the pit as a slurry, mix 1 lb. of Activator PLUS per 1 gallon of water and apply
50% to problem areas and 50% evenly over the rest of the pit.
- Wash excess solution into the pit
- Once normalized/clean, repeat twice yearly as needed to maintain pit performance
- Allow all disinfectants to dry prior to treatment
Deep Pit Containment Systems
For solid buildup/issues use AgraSpheres or AgraSlatss as directed.
*NOTE: All systems may need treatments to return the storage system to normal operational efficiency.
