mites!! yuck
« on: June 26, 2011, 22:47 »
i have gone into all my coups today and oh my god what happened in the last week .... there are mites in two houses and it was not nice ... we have power washed, used jeyes and put powder in all the houses .. however they are crawling up my feet ...  we have powdered the girls as well ..
should i invest in a incinerator bin to burn everything?? i usually put it in black sacks and put out for rubbish ..
how can i get the horrid little things out of the ground ??

i have scrubbed and jet washed out the coupes twice this week so far and am starting to feel quite sick of seeing these bugs running around ... i have been told to get builders lime for the garden as when clearing out there was some on the ground.. well alot of them actually .. would builders lime work to get rid off the little monsters??
