The individual bags are water-soluble. Simply toss the bags right into the pit. A larger pit requires multiple bags. Spread them out evenly as well as you can around the lagoon. If the pit has a crust or frozen cover, mix with non-treated water and add to the pump, gutter or slats.

NO. This is strictly a bacteria and enzyme-based product that will not harm or corrode any living thing.

Crops and fields that have had manure applied that have been re-digested with iManure will absorb faster and have a more nutrient-rich base. The Bacillus bacteria in iManure will also aid plant growth.

We grow all of the bacteria in Belgium, WI, test for quality, and then freeze dry it to be activated when in contact with moisture.

The bacteria and enzymes in iManure re-digest the waste from animals, mainly the undigested feed and straw clumps, so they are broken down faster, making it easier to pump and apply. Bacillus subtillis • Secretion of cellulase, xylanase, protease • Binds ammonia-N • Foam control • Anti-microbial substances production Bacillus amyloliquefaciens • Elimination Nitrate-N and Ammonia-N • Lipase production • Plant growth promoter • Plant root pathogen inhibitor Bacillus licheniformis • Solids breakdown • Strong adaptability • Increases fertilizer efficiency • Helps control plant diseases • Elimination of Nitrate-N and Ammonia-N Bacillus pumilus • Very strong proteolytic activity • Enzyme secretion • Reduction of volatile organic acids • Plant growth promoter - Increased Boron and Phosphorus uptake

NO. These bacteria do not digest sand.

YES! Breaking down urea (found in urine) into ammonia is the primary source of bad smells in manure. The ammonia is then released, which causes foul odors. The bacteria in iManure digest some urea into carbon dioxide. The rest of the ammonia can be used as nitrogen for bacteria growth.

NO. Bacillus bacteria are very hardy and can withstand the rate of copper sulfate when mixed with a large amount of manure. We do not recommend mixing with a high concentration of treated water or chemicals. 2ppm and under is acceptable.

If you have an almost empty pit, treat the amount that is in the pit or lagoon. Then monthly, treat the amount that is added each month. If you are treating a full pit that is about to be pumped and has never been treated before, we suggest a double treatment. Each water-soluble pack treats 50,000 gallons.

Yes. Lab and field tests showed that the low concentration of copper in manure from using a hoof bath does not inhibit the effectiveness of the bacillus bacteria in iManure.
