To reduce the risk:
- Use mains water wherever possible
- Have water bowls, troughs or drinkers above the level for faecal contamination and wildlife access.
- Avoid contamination of watercourses.
- Clean feed and water troughs regularly.
- Discourage dogs and cats from walking in feed troughs.
- Keep feed in a clean, dry store.
- Keep feed stores covered and shut to ensure no access by dogs, cats, vermin and wildlife.
- Dispose of old or soiled feed safely.
