Definitive treatment for depluming mites?

[cskame03]

Did you treat the coop?? I had to clean mine completely out and spray it
I’m going to have to do it a couple more times. I’ll tag you in my post. There is good info there from the replies I received. My thread is titled Mites.

I did treat my coop. it looks like chest feathers are coming back in and I'm getting back to 5 eggs again. i went down to 4 eggs than 3 eggs. I was new to chickens i bought these at a swap. they were not in the best shape. please keep me posted. I bought some girls from fleet farm they are now almost 3 months and I fear they may contracted respiratory, some of thier voices are raspy so I just ordered tiagaurd from Amazon. I'm getting overwhelmed about to cull all in a month. I work 50 hours a week and it's alot of work. share any info you have and good luck!

What did you treat your coop with? And did you just do the 1 dose of ivermectin and it got rid of your mites? Or did you follow up with more doses somehow? I think I'm dealing with the same thing, even decreased eggs, and I've so far put 1 dose of ivermectin on the back of necks.

I could have written this post. I have been going crazy trying to help my girls but they seem to be looking worse. I have tried permethrin dusting twice, ivermectin three times and now I am looking into Elector PSP from the Chicken Chick. Was it effective for you? Have your girls improved?

I'm suffering with the same
