The poultry industry has a moral obligation to produce as [wholesome a product as pos | sible, free from chemical con tamination for public consump tion. FDA, as a “watchdog” agency, is in the driver’s seat and is determined to do a good policing job. Therefore, make a quick, thorough check on which drugs, feed additives and pesti cides are currently on your farm and determine whether they are being used according to FDA and manufacturer’s directions. New procedures are now available which can detect a presence of parts per bil lion of many chemical com pounds. There is a zero tol erance for most of these com pounds in meat and eggs. Do yourself a favor and don’t be careless with these chemicals The law has changed on cer tain compounds; so if you are in doubt, contact your local Extension Office. Recommended and approved pesticides now being used are Malathion, Coumaphos (Co-ral) and Carbaryl (Sevin). Malathi on and Co-ral are “safe” to use directly on the birds, in the nests and on the litter and roosts.
