Dust Control Options
Dust from unpaved areas can cause many problems such as health hazards, crop damage, vehicle wear and tear, and loss of road surface.
Trying to control the dust helps to provide safety on and around the roads.
MAG is extremely effective and safe to use.
It helps to make the unpaved surfaces harder, and more compact, help reduces erosion and prevent risk of uneven surfaces.

How Much Do I Use?
- The amount needed varies depending upon the size of your ring, the footing composition, and depth, but generally speaking we find that the average indoor arena will need 2 to 4 pallets of our MAG to achieve complete dust stabilization and freeze-proofing in the average 75’ x 150’ indoor with all sand footing.
Are There Any Restrictions?
- Yes! The worst thing that you can do when using MAG is to water your ring. Once you commit to using MAG, it is very important that all watering for dust control is halted following the first application. The reason is simple: You are applying a dust control agent at the surface, and gravity and hoof action will help it to penetrate the footing, coat all the particles of footing and hold them down on the arena floor where you want them. By watering after you have applied MAG, you are rinsing the product off the top and into the subsurface.
