Biosecurity measures and practices on your farms can make a significant impact on the prevention of disease from outside
sources effecting your livestock.

1. What is biosecurity?

Biosecurity is a practice of forming a barrier between your pigs and the possible contact with infection from outside sources
such as
a. Other animals which are carrying infection.
b. People which are carrying infection.
c. Vehicles which are carrying infection.
d. Any products entering your farm which are carrying infection.

2. Good biosecurity practices.

a. Always know the source of the pigs you purchase -ensure the source the pigs are
purchased from have no disease issues and are regularly inspected by a qualified
vet.
b. Use good practices to eliminate direct contact with your pigs from other animals￾Such as birds, domestic animals(cats, dogs)
c. Limit the contact your pigs have with people- Limit access to the pigs to those directly responsible for looking
after the pigs (don’t allow visitors to your pig farm from other pig farms)
d. Always disinfect vehicles which visit your farm for such things as feed delivery, collection of pigs, delivery of
pigs, delivery of materials such as straw, wood shavings. Etc.
e. Always use designated clothing to be worn when working with your pigs-i.e gum boots only used around the
pigs-overalls only used around the pigs, have extra clothing available for visitors who are visiting to change
into.
f. Use disinfectant foot baths to clean your gum boots when entering the pig houses.
g. Put up signs to ensure people know entry is restricted.
h. Put up security fence around the perimeter of your pig house.
