Scratch That Itch with Poly Brushes!

No, we’re not talking about the sudden urge to go buy a mini cow. If you’ve ever spent time around cattle, or any livestock, you already know this: when an animal has an itch, nothing is off-limits. Fence posts, tree trunks, power lines, cell towers, your tractor rolling through the field… if it exists, they’ll rub on it. Livestock are highly motivated by one thing, a really good scratch!

One of the safest and most effective ways to satisfy that need is by installing a brush made without metal. These brushes do far more than feel good. They can also be helpful in removing parasites, dirt, dead skin, and loose hair, while allowing animals to groom areas they can’t reach on their own. Regular use may also help improve circulation and reduce boredom, stress, and abnormal behaviors. Happier, healthier animals are the result! And despite the name, they aren’t just for cattle. Most livestock can benefit from a good brush! Cows, llamas, camels, goats, sheep… if it has fur and an itch, it’s a fan. Install one and you’ll quickly become your furry friends’ BFF (Best Friend Farmer 😄).

At our farm, we took a practical approach. Instead of purchasing expensive traditional cattle brushes, we installed poly bristle street sweeper brushes. Same concept, same benefits, just much easier on the pocket.

Let IMCBR be your go to supplier for durable, affordable poly bristle brushes, and earn some serious bonus points with your animals.
