J4 Fencing & Services has provided deer breeders with high-pressured mist systems that can be installed in and around deer breeding pens and handling facilities. Mist systems are vital in maintaining the health of your deer and the longevity of your breeding operations.
Mist systems greatly reduce the chance of your deer getting Epizootic Hemorrhagic Disease, or EHD, which is one of the most common diseases that kills whitetail deer. This disease is caused by sand-fleas or gnats and produces symptoms similar to Blue Tongue in domestic livestock, including high fever, swelling of face, eyes, tongue, hemorrhaging, and sudden death. You can sense if a whitetail deer is affected by EHD if they excessively seek water.
The mist systems are high-powered, cover dozens of acres and all working spaces, and contain components that greatly diminish the population of these disease carrying insects, hence reducing the risk of your whitetail deer becoming infected. The reduction of these annoying insects can also relieve overall stress from the deer, encouraging their feeding habits and their immune system. If their immune system is substantial, then they will be more likely to fight off an EHD infection, therefore, becoming immune for life and passing that immunity on to their fawns.
J4 Fencing & Services’ mist systems are a vital part of whitetail management. We can provide functional mist systems for deer that can span up to 50 acres. The system will be carefully designed to complement your operation without interfering with day to day tasks or the movement of animals.
