The composition is an aqueous solution of: PA0 an aliphatic sulfate or sulfonate salt detergent; PA0 lactic acid or a food grade salt thereof; PA0 a bactericidal food grade organic acid selected from benzoic acid, sorbic acid, citric acid and lower alkanoic acids, and food grade salts thereof; PA0 a veterinarily acceptable food grade pectin or gum; and PA0 a veterinarily acceptable water soluble emollient selected from short chain aliphatic polyols of up to six carbon atoms; The composition is suitable, for example, as a teat dip and bacterial control approaching 100% is demonstrated by in vitro and in vivo testing.
