question...

[ireth]

Hi everybody! I am a European vet (Italy) coming soon to USA for a holiday. Does anybody know how much time I should wait from my last visit to a farm and/or contact with livestock? And if this time hasn't passed, will they disinfect my stuff or what?
Thanks!!!
M.

our vet takes off his latex gloves and sleeves, etc, and washes off his boots and any equipment he used here. So my cow poop stays at my farm and he doesn't bring any extra with him.

Safest thing for you to do is to contact Vet Services. Try this e-mail:

Hope you enjoy your trip!

Yes, of course I supposed that, Dee, the question is that everybody coming into USA has to declare if "recently" they have been in contact with farms or livestock (because of FMD)..well, I only needed to know what "recently" means!!! Thanks Texan, I'll check it!!
