Hi, I have a hen that had mites. She was already dealing with some health issues and the mites found her an easy target. I’ve checked the rest of the flock and didn’t see any but found them in the coop and treated with permethrin.
Our chickens free range and we have found mites everywhere, on the patio, on the water hose, etc.
Any advice for treating them everywhere? I’m attaching a picture but I assume they are NFM - I am totally freaked out. I have found them on me multiple times. Can they live without a chicken as their host? Can they invest my house?
I’m freaking out.
