I am a bit overwhelmed with so much conflicting information out there!

I have just discovered a lice infestation in my flock. I have to treat 60+ birds, three coops, an indoor pen and two brooders. I need help deciphering proper mixing ratio for Gordon's Permethrin 10 liquid.

I have 8 six week old barnyard mix (brahma/various large breed) and 3 three week old silkies.
For one, is this permethrin safe to use on these babies?
What mixing ratio do I use and where do I apply on chicks?
Is it safe to treat their brooder pen with the same ratio as the adults pens?

What mixing ratio would I use for standard to large breed birds?

I have an indoor pen with three adult silkies, a polish bantam, a d'uccle and a sebright. Would they use the same mixed ratio as the other adults?

Right now I'm trying to get at least my indoor birds done before we all settle in for the night. I have gallon jugs I can mix in or a 32 oz spray bottle.

I'm with you!!! Did you get a straight answer about the dilution? I have 20 birds and a 1 gal spray bottle I need to use but I don't want to overdo it....
 
I have around 400 birds. I posted a solution chart in an above post. I use the 0.50% solution. I have tried others but that mixture is the one I have had the best results with.
