I haven’t herd of the product before...

Though the irony isn’t lost on me though... pictures advertising the product showing an Egloo, which are known to be pretty much mite free! hehe
I hate signatures but love irony

I swear by smite the mite.  It's reasonably priced, smells okay, not harmful, is a general disinfectant, easy to use and IT WORKS :)

We have a large plastic B&Q shed which is great for the hens, dead easy to wash and hose out and no red mite problems its great.

As it's fine today, my husband and I are going to treat our shed using Hillfooter's very detailed instructions. I've got throw away hooded overalls (which since I'm barely five foot have to be rolled up!) and masks. I can't imagine what the neighbours will think let alone the chickens when we turn up looking like extra's from CSI Miami! :D

Hi all I have just received this email from them,

Hi Michael,

Yes our Defra approved sanitiser can be used in bird cages.

We sell it as a concentrate in 5 litre containers and you dilute at 1 part concentrate 8 part water.

Cost is £33.00 with £12.00 carriage plus VAT.

I have a gent in Carlisle using it for the same purpose.

If you need any further information please do nit hesitate to contact us.
