Some strains can remain infectious across a wide range of pH, from pH4 to pH13. Studies also show still virulent activity in strains stored for 5 and 7 years at 5\u00b0C, 18 months at room temperature and between 10 and 30 days at 37\u00b0C. The virus can also survive in protective media such as soil or animal faeces for 5 to 6 months and up to 30 months in chilled meat.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The best possibly way to secure and protect your animals and your farm is to <\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Kersia is committed to supporting pig farms through offering complete and comprehensive and tested biosecurity products and solutions, through our \u2018\u2018Cleaning, Disinfection and Protection Programs\u201d<\/strong>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Effective cleaning of surfaces and equipment ensures the best possible condition for disinfection. <\/strong><\/p>\n Use our proven alkaline cleaners ULTRAFOAM<\/em><\/strong>, ECOFOAM ADVANCED<\/em><\/strong> or AGACREAM<\/em><\/strong> for the effective removal of organic load.

Great attention should be paid to the wheels<\/strong> of all vehicles, whether trucks, vans, feed suppliers, employees, or visitor cars \u2013 they all should be cleaned and afterwards disinfected with VIREX<\/strong> every time they enter or leave the site.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Next to hygiene measures, increased vigilance, improvement of building maintenance, pest and rodent control, monitoring of entrants and animal health, and training of your employees are essential measures to prevent the entrance of African Swine Fever to your farm.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n For more information, please refer to the PDF document “Kersia \u2013 African Swine Fever Solutions<\/u><\/em><\/strong><\/a>”<\/p>\n <\/p>\n\n
