Tips for maintenance

Spread a small amount of bedding on the lying mats
› e.g. soft milled straw or mineral material
(moisture in the lying area, among other things, plays a major role in the development of skin diseases and infections)
Treatment with a high-pressure cleaner as well as with standard cleaning agents is possible
