- 1 Box treats up to 600,000L / 132,000 gallons of Slurry.
Beneficial Nutrients
Slurry is an important resource for all farmers, but it comes with significant challenges and dangers that have to be addressed and dealt with.
In its raw (and untreated) state, animal slurry is very concentrated and will dry out and become solid or create a crust, and can create problems in terms of being able to fully mobilise and utilise the nutrients in the slurry.
The beneficial nutrients are a valuable resource and commodity for any farmer, but unless managed correctly they will break down forming a surface crust and create Slurry gas in the form of Hydrogen Sulphide (H²S) that builds up under the crust, this is highly poisonous and has claimed several lives.
Slurry–Flo is an organic bacterial slurry inoculant (commonly called slurry bugs) that used to break down the solids within the animal waste and reduce and prevent the possibility of slurry pit surface crusting.
By increasing the liquidity and mobility the ease of slurry handling, pumping and its distribution is dramatically improved, reducing fuel costs and also wear and tear on machinery such as pumps and mixers.
The biological mass also retains more nitrogen in the slurry to increase nutrient value available to crops, and also reduces odour emissions.
Features of Slurry-Flo:
Slurry-Flo uses billions of organic micro-organisms that work 24 hours a day ensuring your animal slurry is kept in an ideal condition to reduce odours, crusting and harmful slurry gases.
Slurry-Flo comes in simple to use, dissolvable tablets that are added to a bucket of warm water, left for a few minutes and then added directly to the slurry store.
These ‘bugs’ (bacteria & enzymes) have been chosen for their task specific activity on the components of slurry, and once activated by dissolving in water they target the waste stream.
- Each tablet contains 300 Billion bacteria ready to start work on your slurry at a cost of just 25p per 1,000L of slurry!!

FAQs
Slurry-Flo is a blend of specially selected bacteria and enzymes whose food source is the ingredients of animal slurry. It uses organic methods to breakdown slurry and liquify to make easier to handle, mix and distribute evenly when spreading
It keeps slurry liquid, reduces odours and concentrations of dangerous H²S gas. By keeping slurry liquid the slurry homogenises and provides a much more complete nutrient to the field and also saves time and money in handling. Pumping and stirring is easier as their is less resistance reducing fuel and machinery wear and tear costs, distribution and spreading is better as droplet size is reduced meaning a better spread and coverage.
Yes, with better distribution their is less concentration and this allows the soil to process the nutrients rather than being drowned or suffocated with the high concentration from lumpy and chunky delivery.
Yes, Slurry-Flo breaksdown the animal waste from it’s solid form and unbinds the material to keep it flowable and mobile. This means that your pumps do not have to work as hard and also when you pump the slurry the Slurry flo bacteria will also take residence in the pipes meaning that any residual slurry in the pipes is keep broken down and will prevent future blockages. By keeping the slurry mobile it also means the pump does not need to work as hard and this cuts fuel bills, and also with the Slurry move liquid the distribution is wider and further which means you use less fuel trying to cover the same amount of ground.
Yes, The nitrogen in the urine means that there is strong ammonia smells from the slurry, but the solid components create Hydrogen Sulphide which in turns creates a rotten egg smell, which in large volumes becomes poisonous to human and cattle. Slurry-Flo also makes the barns and livestock shelters much safer for the cattle by reducing the levels of H2S gas.
How to use
- 1
Work out how many litres/gallons of storage you need to treat
- 2
INITAL Treatment USE - 2 tablets per 25,000L / 5,500 gallons - this quickly establishes bacterial colonies in slurry
- 3
Add the tablets to a bucket of warm water , stir and leave for 20-30 minutes to activate
- 4
Add contents of bucket to slurry pit and ideally mix in or distribute, try and add below crust for best result
Maintenance Dose
- 1
Use 1 tablet per month per 25,000L / 5,500 gallons to keep bacterial colony numbers high
- 2
In hot/dry weather add water to ensure slurry has enough moisture for bacteria to work
