Mites all in coop!

I'm horrified. I sprinkled seven dust all over bedding. What else can I do?

Any pictures of your mites?

I'm unsure if seven dust is safe for the chickens... I use permethrin AFTER removing all bedding (and the bedding needs to be burned/completely removed as it houses eggs and mites). Chickens must all be treated too, same day, with a repeat treatment for the chickens after about a week. There are good threads on mite treatment here if you do a keyword search.

Best of luck!!

A vet told me about seven dust. I honestly didn't like the idea of it. They look brownish red to me. Ok thank you! I'll buy some!
