I'm infested with lice and wondering what would be the best and easiest treatment for it is and if I should also treat the coop and run? I know there are three insecticides I could use. But unsure how to get them. I'm thinking of actually getting the Carbaryl Dusting Powder but not sure how to get it and such.
 
You can use Sevin Garden dust. It's easy to get at Tractor Supply or the garden section of most big chain stores. It's in a red container. What you do is put it in the cut off leg of some old pantyhose and dust all the birds with it like a powder puff. Then clean out the coop and dust it well - get every surface. Repeat in seven days when the new eggs have hatched, and there you go :) I used it on my birds when they had lice introduced by wild birds and it worked perfectly.
