DIRECTIONS FOR USE

MONARCH MERIT CONCENTRATE MUST BE DILUTED BEFORE USE
DO NOT MIX WITH ANYTHING BUT COOL, POTABLE WATER

NOTE:  Monarch Merit Concentrate requires the proper dispenser for
dilution. Consult your Ecolab representative for specific use
instructions and recommended dispensing equipment.

Dilution Parameter: A dilute solution of a 1.0% iodine teat dip will
consist of 75% potable water and 25% Monarch Merit Concentrate by
volume.

Application of Diluted Monarch Merit Concentrate
IMPORTANT: Use only as directed. When transferring diluted Monarch
Merit Concentrate to a new container, make sure the new container is
thoroughly cleaned and bears the proper container labeling for
Monarch Merit Concentrate.

If product in dip cup becomes visibly dirty, discard contents and
replenish with diluted product. Do not reuse or return any unused
product to the original container.

Before Milking: Wash teats thoroughly just prior to next milking with
appropriate udder wash solution or pre-milking teat dip to avoid
contamination of milk. Teats should then be dried with single-service
towels. Use proper procedures for udder washing or pre-dipping.

Directions for Teat Dipping

Pre-Milk Dipping: Fill teat dip cup with diluted Monarch Merit
Concentrate. Before each cow is milked, dip each teat full-length into
the teat dip cup containing diluted Monarch Merit Concentrate. Wipe
teats dry after dipping, using single-service towels to avoid
contamination of milk.

Post-Milk Dipping: Immediately after each milking, dip each teat
full-length into the teat dip cup containing diluted Monarch Merit
Concentrate. Allow to air dry. Do not wipe. Always use fresh, diluted
Monarch Merit Concentrate. Do not turn cows out in freezing weather
until teat dip is completely dry.

Directions for Teat Spraying

Pre-Milk Spraying: Before each cow is milked, spray entire teat with
diluted Monarch Merit Concentrate. Wipe teats after spraying using
single-service towels to avoid contamination of milk.

Post-Milk Spraying: Immediately after each milking, spray entire
teat with diluted Monarch Merit Concentrate. Allow to air dry. Do not
wipe. Always use fresh, diluted Monarch Merit Concentrate. Do not
turn cows out in freezing weather until diluted Monarch Merit
Concentrate is completely dry.

Expanded Usage: When freshening cows, begin dipping teats twice
daily for about 10 days before calving.

PRECAUTION:  Monarch Merit Concentrate is not intended to cure or
help the healing of chapped or irritated teats. As with any germicide,
irritation or sensitization may occur in sensitive animals. In case of
teat irritation or chapping, have the condition examined and, if
necessary, treated by a veterinarian.

NOTE: Use blended Monarch Merit Concentrate within six (6) months
of blended date.
