thats it shazzer .but as bodger says DURAMITEX is good ....  but its dependant on what you can get hold of. buy the magazine the poultry keeper from a new agent  and itb has loads of adds for products .maybe someone has a newish copy and can send you one

Ordered diatom from internet but that wont be here for a few days.  I've sprayed them all with some spray i had, washed out house. and put vaseline on their legs and bottom of perch.  My poorly girl has the red mites on her tail feathers and wings, what should i do about that? I sprayed her the same as the others

[Bodger]

Check her in the morning. What colour were the crawlies ?

[Shazzer]

i think they were kin of red/brown they were dark,

Would this be the right stuff?   Made from layers of microscopic algae laid down in prehistoric times, it is mined and then milled to the correct grade. Used for many years worldwide, this is a tried and tested product.

That's Diatom :!:  It's all I use in my eglu against red mite.  I add it to the dustbath they have in their run to prevent lice too

[TRACKS]

yes duramitex is still just as effective
and available from god pet shops

[Shazzer]

bodger why did you want to know the colour of the crawlies.

[Shazzer]

If she still has mites on her tommorrow what should i do cause she looked pretty sad today

[muntjac]
