About your Haygain

HG-GO hay steamer
Congratulations on purchasing your Haygain
®
HG-GO hay steamer!
Mould growth can affect all types of hay and haylage. Moulds produce respirable dust that
when inhaled can cause respiratory allergies. These conditions compromise the ability of your
horse to breathe properly. Mould growth also reduces the nutritional quality of the forage.
Your Haygain
®
hay steamer is the only system scientifically proven to kill mould spores and
bacteria in forage, and remove the potentially allergenic respirable dust. Steamed hay helps to
protect your horse from harmful dust and microorganisms, which allows your horse to perform
to the best of its ability. Your horse will also love the improved taste of steamed forage.
