Mites (pest) and using DE
@JaeG

Would you ever use DE again to get rid of bugs?

Most people will swear DE works yet those same people have never had a bug issue YET.

No and NO..
It's a waste of money.

I dont know why youre saying no. I've looked on multiple sites talking about Diatomaceous Earth with chickens, and they all say it's fine to use and will kill lice, mites, and other bugs.

Feel free to use it, I backed up my NO with a post from a real life user where it did not work.
Did you read their experience with it.
The user is JUST 1 of the hundreds of users that have tried DE and had it fail.

Im going to at least try it to see what happens. If it doesn't work, we'll get something else.
