Abstract
Animal Quarantine Diseases (AQD) are more likely to enter and spread when dogs and cats are transported into and within Indonesia. Implementing quarantine actions for pets, particularly dogs and cats, at the Animal Quarantine Facility (AQF) is crucial in preventing the spread of various diseases among these animals. Choosing the right disinfectants and insecticides to eliminate agents carrying AQD and ensuring safety for workers and animals are essential. This study aims to obtain a Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for disinfection and disinsection at AQF for dogs and cats which is safe for animals and humans. The research method begins with a literature review to determine treatment methods and the selection of disinfectants and insecticides. Three different disinfectant groups-(Oxidizing agent ((Hydrogen Peroxide +PAA), Aldehydes Class Glutaraldehyde and Quats, and chlorine compounds (Sodium Hypochlorite)- as well as the Pyrethroid insecticide groups (Cypermethrin EC) were used in treatments. Each disinfectant was observed in combination with three insecticide formulations and coded as mixture A (Cypermethrin EC and Hydrogen Peroxide- PAA), mixture B (Cypermethrin EC and Glutaraldehyde + Quats), and mixture C (Cypermethrin EC and Sodium Hypochlorite). The treatment variables consisted of rinsed and unrinsed. Observation indicators include odour, irritation, stain formation, and corrosiveness. The results showed that the rinse treatments of all mixtures (A, B, and C) proved to eliminate the effects of odour and irritation within 24 hours. These observations are considered for the empty period of the kennel from treatment until the quarantine facility is used again. The rinse treatment was shown to reduce stains on glass surfaces and add aesthetic value. Exposure to cypermethrin in cypermethrin-sensitive cats could be controlled by rinsing treatment around the inner walls of individual cat cages. Treatment with rinsing on easily corroded materials such
as iron and aluminium can control the corrosive effects of hydrogen peroxide and sodium hypochlorite. The combination of disinfectants and insecticides did not affect the effectiveness of the insecticide, as various vector species were still found within and around the facility.
