The present invention corresponds to the composition of a unique formula to be used as pre-dipping and post-dipping in robot milking in order to control mastitis in bovines. The composition comprises at least one organic zinc salt, water soluble and with biocidal properties, where the concentration of zinc ions is in the range of 5,000 to 60,000 ppm. The salts with biocidal properties were selected for having a functional group similar to proteins. Organic zinc salts are degradable, less irritating to the cow's teat, improve the skin condition, have an anti-inflammatory effect, accelerate wound healing processes and eliminate bacteria and fungi. The organic zinc salts selected for this invention were the following: gluconate, lactate, glycinate, lysinate, citrate trihydrate, picolinate, and acetate. Zinc sulfate monohydrate can be optionally added, but in low concentration, less than 1.5% of the final product. The viscosity of the spray composition should be in the range of 3 to 5 centipoise (cP), at room temperature. Finally, and very importantly, the composition has no corrosive activity on metals and non-metals, such as stainless steel, carbon steel, computer cards and other components found in bovine milking robots.
