You should do a physical inspection and look for the creepy crawlies. Here's some good info on what to look for: https://the-chicken-chick.com/poultry-lice-and-mites-identification/

I've used the recommended PSP and it's good stuff. Highly recommend it. It has a long shelf life, too.

Ivermectin is not always effective. It's much better to use permethrin products or the more expensive Elector PSP. Pictures and treatment instructions are in the link given above.

I was able to special order it through my local ag store. You can the generic online here. I trust that website - I purchase my Cross Beaks food from there and have purchased meds as well.

The Chicken Chick sells small vials (9mL) of it for about $22 USD, in case you don't want to spend so much for a whole bottle $$$. https://shopthechickenchick.com/products/elector-psp

You can also find it online at Walmart.com
