I haven't really gotten any results with DE either. I read the article and I'll see if I can get some permethrin to kill the fleas. I tried putting vaseline on some of the chickens just about an hour ago and I'm gonna see how that works out also. Thank you!
TL;DR-- My whole flock has mites/fleas, is there a permanent solution to getting rid of them at this point?
It's been a while since I posted here, so hello again BYC.
Over the past few months our flock of 29 chickens has picked up little flea-looking pests, chicken mites? I'm not entirely sure...
