Please exercise caution when isolating your horse from the Equine Herpes Virus. Make sure your stalls are disinfected thoroughly.
According to Dr. Larry Bauman, Equine Veterinarian, "Generic disinfectants such as bleach, chlorhexidine, quaternary ammonias and others are effective in killing the EHV-1 virus." This is great advice, but your barn stalls need to be constructed of a surface that can be easily disinfected.
MdBarnmaster barns are the perfect horse housing environment to help reduce the spread of disease. The modular galvanized steel construction allows you to power wash and thoroughly disinfect every stall repeatedly and the galvanized steel does not allow disease carrying germs to penetrate the stall walls.
