Product Information [pdf]

Scour Bos 9 at dry-off begins a lifetime of production.

Vaccinating a dry cow today with Scour Bos 9 ensure tomorrow's calf will consume colostrum that carries powerful antibodies enabling her to grow up to be the healthiest, strongest producer she can be.

In the first year, Scour Bos 9 can be given to dry cows and first-calf heifers eight to 16 weeks prior to calving; a booster with Scour Bos 4 should be given 4 weeks prior to calving. In subsequent years, revaccinate up to 10 weeks before calving , when cows are dry.

Scour Bos 9 offers the broadest calf scours protection available with three types of rotavirus, one type of coronavirus, four strains of E. coli bacteria and Clostridium perfringens Type C. You can be rest assured that your calves will be up to the scours challenge that come their way.

In addition to Scour Bos 9, producers can also select Scour Bos 4 (rotavirus and coronavirus protection), or Bovine Pili Shield™ + C (E. coli and C. perfringens Type C), depending on the herd health history and herd management program.
