Have any of you heard of "Bug Block" it is a parasite spray for horses says it even kills scorpions and black widow spiders.

I am wondering if I can use this in my coop?

Item Information
Bug Block contains Pyrethrins and Permethrin, the two important active ingredients essential for killing and repelling more than 70 different species of pests, including the Culex species of mosquito, known to transmit the West Nile virus. Also works on hard-to-kill threats such as scorpions and black widow spiders.

  • 40 ounce spray bottle of liquid
Active Ingredients:
Permethrin 0.20%, Pyrethrins 0.10%, N-OCTYL Bicycloheptine Dicarboximide 0.50%
Other Ingredients:
99.2%

Directions For Use:
Shake well before each use. Ready to use, no mixing necessary. Hold container upright and spray as directed. This product may be applied directly with either a soft cloth or fine mist spray.

Initial Treatment: Apply 1 to 2 ounces daily for 2 to 3 days. As infestation subsides, repeat treatment every 7 to 14 days or as prescribed by a veterinarian. Also re-apply every time animal is washed or exposed to rain.

Use As Spray: Apply to face, legs, flanks, top line and other body areas commonly attacked by flies. Do not wet horse's skin or exceed two ounces per application.

Use As Wipe-On: Brush animal to remove excess dirt or dust. Moisten but do not wet to the point of dripping a soft cloth and rub over the hair. It is best to apply by rubbing against the hair growth. Avoid using an excessive amount on your horses. Do not wet skin.
Heard of it, never used it. Pyrethrins and Permethrins have been used for years in control of lice, mites in chicken coops. Just wouldn't get it too wet in the coop and let it thoroughly dry before reintroducing the flock back to the coop.

So my wife and I are chatting about Andrew Jackson tonight, I am a bit of an Indian. Trail of tears jerk that he was. She got cashback today and wouldn't take a Jackson, the kid at walmart was confused. I am so proud of her. I can't believe he is still on the 20.

She also says I don't have enough chicken facebook badges. I do have a CAB and an incredibly stacked rack. When we had mandatory Class A inspections(your dress uniform) at LARMC I always made my supervisors look bad. It was always pretty funny.

Anyways, a rack is what you call your award ribbons. I always hoped they would stop making me do Class A inspections out of shame. That never happened and I always had to explain my ribbons to those fobbit/noncoms. Just my random ramblings. Also, being a med/surg nurse getting my brothers home safe was the most rewarding job I've ever had in life. I am so happy to have had that experience. Please never thank me for my service because I feel used I really have issues about my time in the military. Anyhow, I am no hero I just lived the life I lived.

Thank you for reading my garbage.
