1) Where should I place the band before tightening?

2) Does it matter if the Castrator, rings or clips get dirty?

1) Where should I administer the Band?

A) As far down from the belly as possible. Just slightly above the testicles. Be sure you have both testicles below the band before tightening and inspect after every castration to ensure the band is administered and placed properly. It will help to work the fatty tissue down prior to placing the band. Do this in a fashion as if you were milking a cow.

2) Does it matter if the Castrator Rings,(bands) or Clip get dirty?

A) YES! Be sure the rings and clips are kept free of any kind of contamination. This also applies to the Castrator and your hands. Keep a bucket of slightly soapy water available to wipe off the Castrator and hands if they become contaminated. The old saying is, "An ounce of prevention will save a pound of grief."
