Urgent: Parasites? Bugs under nest box!

[Wildlife]

I know you said you've been using DE already.I really trust this ALL-NATURAL magic powder that works physically and not chemically.Works like a champ for me! I would suggest you give DE another chance.If you can expose the bugs by lifting the nest-box,try direct application right on those pesky critters! They WILL die! Also,be sure the DE you are using is as PURE as possible.PURE DE is a little harder to find,but worth the trouble.I've found that some DE products are greatly diluted - some by over 90%!!! ( the "DE" sold at my local TSC is only 8% DE - 92%=OTHER ) Read those labels carefully.Good,pure DE should also be "Food-Grade" and display OMRI Seal.Remember-DE is a SAFE chemical-free option for us all! GOOD LUCK my friend!

What application rate would you use with permethrin 10%? Since this is a liquid, do you spray the walls, bedding, and litter, or the chicken directly, or both?
Thanks,
Kenneth

I haven't applied any sprays on or around my chickens, although it's perfectly acceptable to ... I just prefer directly dusting, as req'd. Although it's Winter, and there's no reason to worry about the bees? Even a small container will carry you well into next year, so: Please be certain to never spray where anything is to flower w/in a month of application, so as to not endanger the population of wild honeybees (most esp. the two hives on our farm, for those livin' nearby ~'-)

Also: DO NOT allow the unmixed product in it's pure form to get in the eyes -- really important that you be careful when mixing.

I have made lice/mite shampoos by calculating to reach the proper level of concentration w/in cheap conditioners, which provides a great big bottle of treatment for folks at literally less than the sales tax they'd pay when purchasing a very tiny bottle of it (but, don't tell the FDA on me for doin' it ~'-)

OUTDOOR USE
Hose-end Sprayer Use Directions

Mixing Instructions

Fill sprayer bottle halfway with water, then add 4 ounces of Durvet Permethrin 10% to spray bottle. Add water to fill bottle. Shake well. Attach to hose and follow these simple instructions.

1. Make sure the hose-end sprayer is firmly connected to the hose.
2. Make sure the sprayer is in the OFF position. Turn water supply on at the faucet. For best results, turn hose faucet to maximum. Water pressure will build in the hose.
3. To apply product, turn the control valve to the ON position. Water and product are now being mixed at the proper rate.
LAWNS: To control ants, armyworms, chiggers, chinch bugs, crickets, cutworms, fleas, grasshoppers, mosquitoes, sod webworms, sowbugs and ticks, spray when pests first appear. For sod webworms, delay watering or mowing the treated area for 12 to 24 hours after treatment.
Spray grass starting at the edge of the lawn furthest from the faucet. Walk backwards away from spray mist toward faucet. This avoids contact of shoes and hose with treated grass. Always point sprayer away from body. Use when wind is calm to avoid splash back. Do not spray on a windy day. Sweep sprayer left and right to ensure an even coverage. Apply entire contents evenly over 1000 square feet of lawn.
To stop spraying, turn the control valve to the OFF position. Turn off water at the faucet. To relieve water pressure in hose, turn control valve to the ON position before removing from the garden hose.
ALLOW SPRAY TO THOROUGHLY DRY ON LAWN BEFORE PERMITTING ANIMALS OR CHILDREN TO ENTER TREATED AREA.
WHEN/WHERE TO SPRAY: To avoid drift, spray on calm days. DO NOT spray near fish ponds, streams or rivers as this product is toxic to aquatic life. DO NOT spray plants in the middle of the day in hot summer weather (i.e. above 85°F) as spray may burn the plants. For best results, spray when insects or damage are first observed.
Ornamentals And Hedges

To control aphids, bagworms, eastern tent caterpillar, fall webworms, grasshoppers, mites, mosquitoes, orange striped oakworm, spittle bugs, whiteflies, yellownecked caterpillar, cutworms, leafhoppers, mealybugs, mimosa webworms, redhumped caterpillar and thrips (exposed): Apply spray thoroughly to all parts of hedges and bushes. Be sure to cover trunks, branches, inside and outside leaves. When spraying leaves, be sure to spray both upper and lower surfaces. Spray to penetrate dense foliage but avoid over spraying to the point of excessive runoff. To prevent being hit by spray, do not apply to overhead areas. Treat when pests appear and repeat at 7 to 10 day intervals, if needed.

PERIMETER: Spray surfaces of barns, dairies, poultry houses, swine and livestock housing and feed lots to control house flies, stable flies and other manure breeding flies. Also aids in control of cockroaches, ants, spiders, mosquitoes, crickets and face flies. Walk and spray at a steady pace. Spray walls and surfaces thoroughly but do not allow runoff to occur. Do not contaminate animal feed or water by spray.
For Temporary Reduction Of Annoyance From flies, Gnats & Mosquitoes. In Drive-in Restaurants, Drive-in Theaters, Golf Courses, Urban Areas, Parks, Playgrounds And Other Recreational Areas, Dilute 1 Part Concentrate In 39 Parts Water (3.2 Fluid Ounces Per Gallon) (0.25%). Direct The Spray Into Tall Grass, Shrubbery And Around Lawns, Where These Pests May Hover Or Rest. Apply While The Air Is Still And Avoid Wetting Foliage. Application Should Be Made Prior To Occupancy.

Insects


Directions
​

Ants, crickets, earwigs, fleas, ticks

For localized infestations of these insects in areas where there are weeds or bushy fleas, ticks non-crop areas, spray infested areas thoroughly. For ants, thoroughly wet hills and runways.

Tent Caterpillars

Apply when caterpillars are young and tents are first noticed. For best results, apply in the late afternoon or evening, when caterpillars have returned to their tents. Wet tents on all sides. A few caterpillars may be seen escaping from the tent, however, they should die within several hours.​

Outside Surfaces Of Buildings
​

Ants, clover mites, crickets, earwigs, millipedes, sowbugs (pillbugs)

To help prevent infestation of buildings, treat the building foundation to a height of 2 to 3 feet where pests are active and may find entrance. Also, apply as a residual spray to outside surfaces of buildings, patios, garages and other areas where these pests may be found.

Flies (cluster, house), gnats, flying moths, mosquitoes

As an aid in reducing annoyance from these insects, spray outside surfaces of screens, doors, window frames or wherever these insects may enter the home. Also treat surfaces around light fixtures on porches, in garages and other places where these insects alight.​

Lawns

Use on Bent, Bermuda, Bluegrass, Dichondra, Fescue, Irish Moss, Merion and St. Augustine lawns.

Insects


Directions
​

Armyworms, ticks, cutworms, chinch bugs, fleas, sod webworms

Thoroughly wet down grass a few hours before applying. Home lawns should be no taller than 3 inches at time of application. Mix 3.2 fl. oz. per gallon of water (0.25%) and treat 1,000 sq. ft.
