Ammonia Control


Litter quality directly impacts bird health and performance.

Ammonia buildup can damage the respiratory tract, reduce feed efficiency and even harm caretakers.

Essential Dry XP helps manage these challenges by working in three ways:

  • Diatomaceous Earth – Absorbs moisture in the litter to limit ammonia release and reduce insect pressure, including lesser mealworms.
  • Yucca Schidigera – A natural plant extract that helps bind ammonia and disrupts the bacterial enzymes that produce it, lowering ammonia levels in the barn.
  • Essential Oils – Improve air freshness and may provide functional benefits by helping limit microbial growth in the litter environment.
