Detect hydrogen sulfide gas in barns, manure pits, and silos. Indigo® Lead acetate test paper provides an early visual warning of toxic H2S buildup to help protect workers and livestock

Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) gas is a silent, deadly hazard in barns, manure pits, and silos where organic waste decomposes under anaerobic conditions. Even low concentrations can cause eye irritation or respiratory distress, while higher levels can be fatal within minutes. Indigo® lead acetate test paper offers a simple, low-cost method for detecting dangerous H2S buildup before entering confined agricultural spaces, no electricity, calibration, or meters required.

The test strips from Indigo are top notch. They are always competitively priced and shipped on time. The best part of dealing with Indigo is that they stay on top of their products. We had a bad batch of strips arrive in the past but before we could figure it out the hard way, Indigo had identified the issue and had a replacement order already in the mail to us. Pretty hard to beat that kind of customer service.
