My mother bought me some Diatomaceous Earth a few years back at a local food co-op that carried this. She had got it for me when I had seen a few roaches in a new apartment and said I could even sprinkle it on my cat for fleas. I poured some in a salt shaker-type bottle and sprinkled it on my cat. I'm sure it's the same for chickens. For the roaches, you put a little sugar in the powder and they ate it up and died.
I just did a search on line and found a website, www.herbalremedies.com that sells it and also describes a lot of things it cures.
I would suggest to people to try a health food store or that type of store rather than Lowes. Most stores will special order you this if you ask them about it.
