Ear Tag Applicator

An ear tag applicator is a tool used in livestock management to attach ear tags to the ears of animals. It is designed to securely and safely apply ear tags, which are small, usually plastic or metal tags used for identification purposes. The ear tag applicator typically consists of a handle or grip, a mechanism for holding and positioning the ear tag, and a mechanism for piercing the animal's ear and attaching the tag. Some applicators may also have additional features for adjusting tag placement or applying different types of ear tags.

Using an ear tag applicator allows farmers and ranchers to efficiently and accurately apply ear tags to individual animals, enabling them to keep track of important information such as identification numbers, health records, and breeding histories.

Use Guidance

Before applying ear tags, it's important to clean them with alcohol or disinfectant to reduce the risk of ear infections. Next, insert the mouse or rat ear tag into the ear tag applicator, ensuring that the side with the identification number faces flat against the jaws of the applicator. Locate the designated area on the ear and position the tag behind the ring of cartilage. Once in place, crimp the tag securely, ensuring that the tag point is inserted through the hole and bent properly to secure the ear tag in position.
