mites coop bugs infested

Huge mite problem, need advice ASAP I just found out today that my chickens have mites. They have all been acting fine, so I don't believe it has been long. But mites are all over my rooster and got on me as well. I found them in the coop too. How do I treat them? I have a pretty large pet...

Hi, i have a 6 day old Serama chick with so many tiny bugs. This is my first time dealing with this since i just started raising chickens last year. I did not realize the parents of the chick were infested with these bugs until the chick hatched, which i also did not know was going to happen...

I was planning to give my broody hen some eggs tomorrow, because the hatch date would coincide with the date that the nearby co-op get chicks (I want to add some new breeds to my flock), but I have had two hens die in the last week. I think it was caused, or at least worsened, by a mite problem...

I am in need of help/advice ASAP!! I go to check on my broody Cochin bantam girls yesterday evening to see if their eggs are hatching yet. I reach my hands into their brood box and lift their fluffy rumps up just a tad to look under them and I see two extra little gray feet! I get super excited...

For the first time in my 20 years of owning free-range chooks, we have Northern Fowl mites. I have no idea where they came from as we live on an isolated rural farm but suspect it's from a recent wood duck invasion... Fortunately, only one hen was infested (she was broody so an easy mite...

How soon after treatment will chickens feel relief from mites? I know it will take a few treatments to completely eliminate the problem but do chickens feel at least slightly better after the first application? Does anyone have any remedies that they swear by?

Hello! I have an infestation of mites and I wasn’t sure if I can use Sevin dust on them and the eggs still remain edible is the breath or ingest it? I appreciate any advice! Thank you

Hi all, I have 2 wonderful hens who are suffering from a nasty mite infestation and the mites have even made their way to my bedroom from when I've picked them up. We just recently moved to a sub tropical area, Townsville, Queensland Australia. Previously I've lived in Bundaberg and Mackay and...

Hey all, so I’ve been having a VERY difficult time ridding my coop/flock of mites. I have sprayed diatomaceous earth in the areas they most like to bathe, and I spray the areas where the mites seem to be hiding within the coop with a water/vegetable oil/soap mix. While this mix does seem to be...

Hello, I have 6 chickens that need re homing! I worked in a school last year and took them as they were nearly dying! I’ve had them nearly a year at home now, but my sister can’t stand them, and somehow there seems to be mites everywhere.. not just in there pen and coop but in our home! (Even...

I posted a few weeks back in Emergencies, because I had a rooster with a severe infestation and my regular treatment was not working, so I spent $150 on the Elector PSP. My husband and I spent 3 hours spraying my 30 chickens between all the feathers and then the rest of the day cleaning the...

I just noticed them at the weekend, they're so small I couldn't really get my camera to focus enough to get good pics, they seem to only be living in and on wood, the whole shed is made from wood aswell as their roosts and they are everywhere I get some on me every time I enter the coop they...
