Silos should be cleaned at least once a year to avoid mold, moisture and feed residues. We tell you how often you should clean your silo and why it is so important.
Do you have control over how much old feed is left in your silo? Cleaning silos is an important but often overlooked part of agricultural hygiene routines. When feed residues and dust remain, it can lead to:
- Mold growth and bacteria
- Moisture problems and lumps
- Measurement errors in level systems
- Reduced feed quality
We recommend that the silo be cleaned at least once a year, preferably when it is empty. At Silo Service we offer professional silo cleaning – both interior and exterior – with safe equipment, dust handling and cleaning methods adapted for feed production.
We also offer disinfection and inspection of level gauges and seals in connection with cleaning. A clean silo is a safe silo.
