That dust works great

Your Martin's Viper Dust is permethrin, yes?I really appreciate all the advice given here, but I'm honestly not looking for another product to kill the lice on the chickens. I will look into Diatomaceous Earth because it may be a good preventative for the environment, but as far as treating my chickens for lice, I don't need help with that. The stuff I use for that is Martin's Viper Insect Dust and I already said it worked great. What I want to know if why the my healthy, older chickens are dying from a parasite that generally only kills young chicks, and why Permethryin 10, the supposed to go for treating lice on chickens, seems to be utter crap compared to Martin's Viper. The dust works perfectly well, but it's a pain to use, so I'd like to know if I'm doing something wrong with the Permethyrin spray.
I'm so sorry, for some reason I wasn't notified via email that anybody had responded!
I have heard of Diatomaceous Earth, but I've heard mixed things about it. I'll have to do some more research into it, I can't keep letting these lice kill my chickens, and three of my chicks have already died...
