You can't find the teats!?!?! Dude, they're between the legs, under the body. C'mon man. What kind of a herper are you?

Chlorhexidine is marketed under lots of trade and generic names and under just as many concentrations. Each one has a different formulation and different inert ingredients.

I have a product named "Nolvasan Solution" which is chlorhexidine diacetate. It has 2% Chlorhexidine diacetate and 98% other ingredients. The recommended dilution on the label is 1oz to one gallon of clean water for disinfection. Yours could be different because you're not using chlorhexidine diacetate.

It doesn't sound like yours has a recommendation for diluting it for disinfection purposes. So if it helps, I thought I'd let you know that the label on mine in similar to yours for "teat dipping" in that it recommends putting 32 oz of Nolvasan in a clean one gallon container, adding 6 oz of glycerin and then adding clean potable water until a total volume of 1 gallon is reached. Obviously a gallon is 128 oz so 128 minus 32 is 96. So the obvious difference with yours and mine is that mine calls for 6 oz of glycerin and 90 oz of water.

So based on that, my best VERY uneducated, recommendation would be 1 oz to one gallon of water for a disinfecting spray solution.

Hope that helps!!
