I have read and heard about the use of dried tobacco lining or sprinkled in nest boxes to reduce lice/mites.. thinking I also read something about feeding some too.. I am interested in growing some tobacco as I like the look of the large dried leaves for my primitive decorating and am wondering if anyone has experience in using with their flocks for preventatives?? I just built a new 14X20 Taj Mahal coop for my mixed flock of 20 and they literally just got moved in this week.. It is a beautiful set up and I am wanting to keep it pristine and clean/pest free! Did a lot of research building it so want to keep it "new"..hahaha.. anyway I saw there are literally tons of tobacco varities so not sure where to even start.. advice?
