Raw Apple Cider for mites?

[pntdhorses]

Has anyone ever sprayed Raw Apple Cider directly on chickens that have mites. I tried it for the first time and it actually seems to kill them! I sprayed directly on the mites.

Now you have to clean your coop out and dispose of litter, including nest boxes. Then treat your coop.
Vinegar doesnt have a residual stay time whereas Permethrin does, 28 days using the spray concentrate.

Sorry, but you probably just drowned the mites. Permethrin works wonders and you have to saturate any wood in the coop well.
