Drenching Gun Or Manual Drench Syringe

Description

A drenching gun is a veterinary tool used primarily for administering liquid medications, dewormers, or nutritional supplements orally to livestock such as cattle, sheep, and goats. It ensures that animals receive the correct dosage of medication directly into their mouths, typically by being squirted at the back of the throat to encourage swallowing.

Structure:

Barrel/Nozzle: The long narrow part that is inserted into the animal’s mouth. Designed to reach past the tongue to prevent spitting out.

Handle/Grip: Ergonomic for comfortable use, especially during repeated dosing.

Trigger: Controls the release of the liquid. Squeezing the trigger dispenses a measured dose.

Dosage Adjuster: A dial or mechanism to set and control the amount of liquid delivered per squeeze.Tubing (if applicable): Connects to a bottle or container holding the liquid medication.

Materials:

Usually made of durable plastic or stainless steel, suitable for use in rugged farm environments and resistant to chemical degradation.

Types:

Manual drenching guns: Require hand pressure to administer each dose.

Automatic drenching guns: Reload automatically between doses, useful for treating large herds quickly and consistently.

Uses:Deworming animals Administering oral antibiotics or vitamins Delivering rehydration solutions or probiotics

Advantages:Accurate dosage delivery Reduces wastage of medicine Minimizes stress and handling time for animals Safer for both the animal and the handler compared to pouring or syringe use
