RumenGuardTM Triple 10 is definitely a cutting-edge product for livestock producers: It is a drug-free approach for addressing worm and cocci challenges. It includes a synergistic blend of D. E., toxin binders and RiomuneTM, a specialized form of yeast. The D. E. (Diatomaceous Earth) has been proven to be very effective against worms and cocci. The yeast is effective in tying up and flushing out pathogenic or scour-causing bacteria. This not only helps rid the system of bad bacteria, but helps open up the absorption sites aiding digestion. Feed for 30 days at the beginning of the last trimester.
