I know how much of the stuff to use per water amount but I forgot how often you spray I already sprayed today since some of my chickens got lice again so when do I spray again??? Is it 7 days from now or am I wrong :confused:
 
Spray every seven to ten days, especially if any 'bugs' are still visible.
Also, wild birds bring the mites or lice to your chickens, so reinfections often are an issue.

Yeah I figured that’s how one of them got the bugs she’s always out and about wanting to check out what wild birds are doing :lol:
Thankfully I think it’s just her who got infected but sprayed everyone just in case but thanks now I remember the days!
 
Here is a chart from a BYC member. I use the 0.5% solution. I also put poultry dust in the nest boxes. Good luck...
