Hey everyone,
one of my chickens seems to be dying of a mite infestation, which i didn't realize until the good ppl here on BYC let me know. however, i've been scouring the internet for stories about controlling mite infestations and i have yet to find a single success story. and by success, i mean eradication! after bringing this new chicken home i found myself COVERED in 20-30 new bug bites, which i'm 99.99999% sure came from him. i'm worried now that they may be breeding in my walls, carpet, bedding, furniture, etc and would love nothing more than to hear good news of ppl who have overcome this scourge
thanks!
