I keep my rooster indoors at night in a store room so his crowing doesn't disturb the neighbours. Today I discovered a sizeable infestation of mites in the room including in the cupboard there where I store the chicken feed.
Since the mites were all over the feed tubs and everything I left them there and have used a fogging bug bomb in the room which contains permethrin.
The mites seem to have died but now I don't know if the chicken pellets need to be thrown away. The food is in lidded plastic tubs which were in the room when it was fogged. Does anyone know if the food is still safe for the chickens to eat?
