Do you have to discard eggs after using Sevin dust?

[Sasquatch]

I had 2 hens with pecked off breasts. I have added wood ash to their dusting spot, but am thinking about dosing the house with a miticide. Do I need to discard my eggs? if so for how long?

I would guess that as long as the hens aren't eating the seven dust the eggs will be fine ~ as long as you clean them really well.

Yes, clean the eggs. The only restriction is 7 day withdrawl if you are going to eat the chicken.

Download and save this chart as it comes in handy (med. withdrawl meat/eggs): http://www.cfo.on.ca/_pdfs/PoultryWithdrawalTimeChart-Mar30-07.pdf
