Check out dusting with Diatomaceous earth. You might have already heard of it or used it .
If not, you can get it at some feed stores . Buy the " food grade " quality.
Its safe for animals and humans , but kills insects.
Believe it or not I even mix with water and drink it from time to time.
Two days ago I found one pullet dead. Looking her over I found mites on her hind quarters.
On the cure,I'd rather go natural but I know seven dust is good for pests.
Here's my dilemma , I have bees and do not want to harm them. I try not to use pesticides because of that.
Do you think its okay...
