Barrier Red Mite Powder 500g

Description

Red Mite Powder is an effective repellent to be applied to poultry as a proactive "on bird" deterrent to infestation or to rectify an existing problem.

Suitable for use in Organic Farming Systems

Red Mite Powder contains only pure and natural ingredients. Red Mite Powder was developed for use in intensive farming systems, but is also suitable for use in organic farming systems, as it falls into the exempt category of products which use only plant oils as active ingredients, as listed in Annexe IIB (Pesticides) of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2092/91 (as amended).

Contents

Our formulation uses only 100% natural ingredients known for their excellent properties to thoroughly rid poultry and other birds of all types of mite and lice. Its active ingredient is a synergised tropical plant extract mixed with a blend of herbal and essential oils, all of which are proven very effective for this purpose. Sterilizable maize is used as the carrier and unlike other carriers, it will not metabolise via cuts, abrasions, scabs, grazes or dry flaky skin areas and form granulomas.

Never use chemical based products in conjunction with our natural products as this could render ours useless.

Use biocides safely. Always read the label and product information before use.

Best time to apply : The best time to treat the birds is in the evening, because Red Mite are nocturnal and so feed on the birds as they roost at night. Apply in accordance with the directions for use, directly onto the birds.

Directions for use

• Use biocides safely.
• Always read the label and product information before use.
• The powder can be dusted onto the birds or added to the dust bath.
• Red mite is a nocturnal creature so it's best to spray the birds before lights out.
• Dim the lights as low as practically possible to avoid any undue agitation amongst the birds.
• Don't forget that red mite can live away from the bird for up to 36 weeks.
• Lightly dust Red Mite Powder over the birds. Dependant upon infestation, the powder can be applied again after 5/6 weeks.

Staying power: Red Mite Powder contains minute slow release granules that remain effective for up to six weeks - depending upon infestation and conditions.
