PREVENTION AND CONTROL OF FOWL POX DISEASE IN POULTRY

There is no effective cure for fowl pox, prevention and control are vital for keeping flocks healthy.
The following are some suggestions that will help decrease the impact of fowl pox on a flock:
√ Virus particles can be found in the environment and debris found in the poultry houses, thus dust control and disinfection of the environment are important.

√ An effective insect control program should be in place.

√ Adopt a strict biosecurity program to prevent the movement of equipment that could be contaminated with pox virus

√ Vaccination is practiced based on history of exposure—revaccination, if necessary, can be done in the face of an outbreak because pox infections are usually slow spreading.
In the event of an outbreak, liquid iodine disinfectant (used for disinfecting water lines) added to the water appears to aid in reducing mortality.
