- Description
Hog Mate™ for Gilts and Sows is used to determine whether or not a gilt or sow is at a correct stage of estrus for artificial insemination. The spray contains a solution of the same pheromone compound which occurs naturally in the boar and which is responsible for the “boar odor.”
Features:
- Increase productivity and save money
- Aids in the identification of estrus in sows and first estrus in gilts without the use of a boar
- Water based formula eliminates solvent shock
- Daily treatment after weaning can reduce the number of days to next estrus
- No organic solvent, no pressurized aerosol
- Safe and non-flammable
- Can be shipped via air freight
- 40 mL will treat approximately 100 sows
Application: 1-2 sprays directly onto the sow's nose from a distance of 8" - 12" away

Had a client that did not have use of a boar for heat checking a group of gilts. Used this product on a towel and hung on gates for each gilt pen. I was skeptical at first but was very impressed with the product. In a pinch this product will get the job done.

I wasn't sure what to expect. I had watched demos on this type of product on youtube but didn't know how it would work in a situation with only a couple of animals present. Once I could tell that the gilt was coming in heat I sprayed the product as directed and almost instantly she stood, just as if a boar were present. I will use again in the future.
