Clik still functional?
« on: July 17, 2013, 03:29:31 pm »
I have a half full bottle of clik that I opened in July 2011, the expiry date is 2015.  Will is still work for this summer? Two years after it was first opened.

It seems a waste but if it won't work I will have to get rid of it.

Thanks

According to NOAH the shelf life after opening is 1 year

Mind you, I told my local farmers this and they laughed saying they would use it anyway. It depends on whether you want to take that chance that it still works ok.

I've used some very ancient stuff and it certainly did the job, I would have no problem with using it, better than trying to dispose of the stuff too!

If it has not been frozen at any time or heated up while stored it should be fine.

Unfortunately you will only know if it hasn't worked when the sheep get STRIKE

My thoughts exactly and for the sake of a new bottle not a risk I want to take. Thanks folks.
