If they're on you, then they are probably mites. Mites have shown resistance to Sevin (carbaryl), so go to Tractor Supply and get some 10% permethrin spray, then strip all bedding from coop and spray the entire coop and all of the birds.Ok, whatever i read about lice or mites doesn't ad up. No nits, easily squished, not "wheat colored " and crawling up MY ARMS and HAIR. Ick ick yuck, anyone plz help. Using tea tree shampoo on me but sais not safe for some animals.used seven dust in coop, and on birds, agri- mectine (ivermectine for cattle and equine) still itching, still mad. Ready to call my doctor for any help. Scared to even hold my birds now, for fear of reinfestation . Mad as hell,
