So the ingredients aren't that different to the fly spray I got yesterday..... "Ready for use Fly Spray. Can be used to control Flies, Moths, Mosquitoes, Ants, Mites, Lice etc. 0.25% Permethrin, 0.125% Tetramethrin, 0.75% Piperonyl Butoxide" I'm doing the maths in that case.... Total Mite...

Yes, I think we can get that for dogs/cats - it's pretty pricey though considering I have around 30+ birds. I liked the idea of occasionally but routinely spraying the birds/coop with permethrin to keep things in check - but I guess if its not available in the UK and there's no alternative...

Thanks - that helps. Do you know what the active ingredients are in the total mite kill concentrate? I have also used the pigeon ivermectin in the past - so that's another option - everything is so expensive here in the UK though! Makes chicken keeping far from economical...

I have red mites in one of my coops. I was aware they were there, painted the whole coop with creocote (a less toxic version of creosote as we can't buy that anymore) and treated the birds with DE. I thought they were gone, but they're back (probably the warmer weather). I'm looking for a...

Anyone else in the UK who can recommend a product to use on the birds?

I will go ahead and spray the coop anyway, as that can't harm. Will wait to hear comments re spraying the birds - should I dilute? If so, what ratio?

I know this is an old thread, but I've read with great interest. Would love to spray with permethrin, but can't find it available here in the UK. I am looking at a liquid "Professional Fly Killer" and wondering if it would do the same job - label says... "Ready for use Fly Spray. Can be used...
