Animals experts have many suggestions about whether your animal eats polythene and, if it does, what the treatment is for it. By adopting these easily, the damage caused by it can be avoided. Not only this but if there is a suspicion of polythene in the cow’s stomach, then polythene can be removed by treating it at home.
Eating polythene by animals is not a problem in any one state today. This problem is increasing day by day in almost every state. The only difference is that this problem is small and somewhere it is big. If animal experts are to be believed, then not only animals are responsible for this. To a large extent, humans are also responsible. Eating polythene is causing losses ranging from the death of animals to a reduction in production. Polythene lying here and there in the garbage heaps on the roadside and in the locality has become fatal for animals.
Cows are especially becoming its victims. Experts say that there are many reasons for cows eating polythene. The main reasons are a lack of minerals in the body, a lack of balanced animal feed in the diet, and leaving the animals free to feed. But if the cattlekeeper learns that his cow or buffalo eats polythene and its treatment is possible at home, then the damage can be avoided to a great extent.
Identify if there is polythene in the animal’s stomach or not.

According to animal experts, large lumps of polythene accumulate in the stomachs of many cows. This lump can be removed only through surgery at one time. But the lump can be removed from the cow’s stomach slowly with the solution prepared at home. The lump opens up due to the effect of the medicine and when the animal ruminates, it comes out one by one.
Make a solution like this to remove polythene.
- 100 grams of mustard oil.
- 100 grams of sesame oil.
- 100 grams of neem oil.
- 100 grams of castor oil.
Mix all the oils and mix them in 500 grams of buttermilk made from cow’s milk. Grind 50 grams of alum and 50 grams of rock salt and mix them. Mix 25 grams of whole mustard seeds. Feed this solution for three days and also give green fodder. By doing this, the cow starts removing polythene from its mouth while ruminating.
