Micro-Bac International, Inc. Satisfied Customers 
for their Wastewater Issues
I. PRODUCTION BENEFITS
A. “Our litters have been a little larger, and we don’t lose as many newborns.”
Jay M., IL - Farrow to Finish Pork Producer
B. “For 2 years the plot treated with manure containing Mega-Bac X out-produced the
other test plots by an average of 18 bushels of corn per acre.”
Jeff W., IL - Cattle Feeder
C. “Because of solids build up, we were constantly having to scrape out the solids.
Since using your product the gutters are always liquid and we have a constant flow
into the lagoon. It’s a real time saver and has eliminated a job that wasn’t much fun.”
Jeff - A Murphy Farm Employee
D. “When we evaluate we don’t think you cost us money, but in fact you save us
money in fertilizer cost, returning micro-nutrients into the soil, labor cost, and of
course, legal costs.”
David W., IL - Pork and Cattle Producer
II. HEALTH BENEFITS
A. “I’ve noticed a big difference in the health of our pigs; no tears, no red eye, and we
seldom hear coughing or sniffling. Our hogs seem to be more active with less tail
biting.”
Jay M., IL - Farrow to Finish
B. “It’s nice to walk into a restaurant and not have people get up and move because
you ‘smell’ like a pig.”
Tom D. - Farmer and Pork Producer
C. “I’ve stayed here because of the health issue. Both my wife and I have worked at
other places and we consider Mega-Bac X a fringe benefit. It’s funny, but we’ve gone
back to places where we worked before and can really notice the difference.”
Dave - A Murphy Farm Employee
III. ODOR BENEFITS
A. “Let me put it this way - my wife and my mother-in-law are both happy with the odor
reduction; how could I be anything but happy.”
Jim B., IL - Murphy Farmer
B. “I’m recommending you to my customers. The wife and kids say it doesn’t stink as
bad.”

® Customer Testimonials
C. “Because we have such a variety of production methods we still haven’t ‘licked’ all
the odor problems. We have however, reduced them and haven’t had any complaints
to the state for some time. Our neighbors now call us because they know we’ll try to
cooperate using some of your other products.”
David W., IL - Pork and Cattle Producer
D. “When the Illinois Department of Natural Resources made a return trip to evaluate our
progress there were no comments about odor, which have always been mentioned
first before. We are now irrigating a field close to half a mile away without blockage,
and with low odor and no complaints. We’ve invited the University of Illinois over to
review our progress.”
Dave I., IL - Dairy Operator
IV. WASTE MANAGEMENT BENEFITS
A. “It took us 18 to 23 minutes to fill a 6,000 gallon capacity Calumet using a chopper
pump. Now we average pumping a 7,300 gallon Houle in 4 to 6 minutes.
Tim - Supervisor of Facility Manure Management Plan
B. “Our old Cargill small unit (partial slot) had 3.5 feet of sediment build-up for years.
This required us to pump it out 3 or 4 times a year. Since we have used your product
we’re able to pump just once a year, and have seen the bottom of the 7 foot pit.”
Kevin O.
C. “I tried your product to see the benefits in ‘pump-out’ time. I could care less about
the odors. All I care about is pumping a load in the least amount of time, and not
having any blockage in my ‘honey wagon’. I’m recommending you to my customers.”
John B., IA - Pork Producer
D. “We have greater crop production using manure treated with Mega-Bac X.”
David W., IL - Pork and Cattle Producer
V. GENERAL
A. “My lagoon (55 million gallons) has been cited 3 times for odor by the Illinois
Department of Natural Resources. We’ve had complaints about odor from the
community and an organization was established to fight our operation. After the
treatment, I couldn’t believe the improvement; no solids, no sediment, and even
during the 100 degree temperature, very little odor.”
Dave I., IL - Dairy Operator
B. “Your products did everything you said they would and more.”
Joel S., IA and MN - Pork Producer
C. “You can tell anyone to call me. I really know the difference that Biostar and
Mega-Bac have made.”
