Sheep-Dip
Definition: sheep-dip
sheep-dip: A chemical preparation used in a dipping bath to disinfect sheep to control diseases such as sheep scab. All sheep in Britain are dipped for scale once a year, following the ministerial decision to have a single national dip. Dipping ceased to be compulsory in the UK in 1992. It is illegal to buy organophosphorous sheep-dip without a certificate of competence. Farmers benefit from using sheep-dip to control diseases and maintain livestock health.
