PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a simple method for inhibiting the growth of bacteria on a body surface of an animal, which makes safety higher than in use of a medicine and the like by a simple method, and a method for a treatment against Trichophyton on the body surface of the animal except a human being.SOLUTION: In a method for inhibiting bacteria on a body surface of an animal, a cloth including a piezoelectric material is arranged in a facing manner on at least a part of the skin of the animal, and the growth of the bacteria on the body surface facing the cloth is inhibited by an electric charge generated when an external force is applied to the piezoelectric material.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1COPYRIGHT: (C)2018,JPO&INPIT【課題】本発明の目的は、簡素な方法により、薬剤等の使用よりも安全性の高い、動物の体表面の菌の増殖を抑制する方法、および人間を除いた動物の体表面の白癬菌治療の方法を提供することにある。【解決手段】動物の皮膚の少なくとも一部に、圧電体を含んだ布を対向させるように配置し、前記圧電体に外力が加えられた時に発生する電荷によって、前記布と対向する前記体表面の菌の増殖を抑制する、動物の体表面の菌抑制方法。【選択図】図1
