Hi all, I have red mites in my chicken coop. I took all bedding and nesting pads out of my coop, swept it out, and sprayed it (drenched) with elector psp; I also sprayed my hens. After everything dried I sprinkled first Saturday lime and replaced all bedding/ pads. I also sprayed the chicken run with elector. That was 8 days ago. I checked last night and saw a few mites in one nesting box. Can I go ahead and respray my hen house with elector again? I've read in some places to retreat every 7 days and every 14 days. Is the 14 day period for respraying the hens and the 7 day period for respraying the chicken coop? I haven't seen any mites on my girls yet but treated them anyway. Please help!
