[QUOTE="randiliana, post: 623314, member: 2308"] I reuse most of our tags, but rather than messing with used buttons, I just buy new ones. Seems a lot more sanitary to me. Tags get washed well though. And, I do not disinfect between animals, all buttons are new to the animal, and the tagger never comes in contact with the animal anyways. We usually don't have any problems, although we had a couple develop infections last spring. Removing the tag, and a dose of penicilling fixed the problem though. I know I can't wear any type of earring, so I presume that there would be the odd animal out there that would be allergic to the material of the ear tags. [/QUOTE]
