Control of Mites and Lice in Poultry Flocks
Colorado farmers seek relief from costly infestations by mites and lice. Treatments include blue ointment with petroleum jelly around vents for large birds, dusting powders on feathers, and nicotine sulphate perches at roost time. For severe cases, a stock dip or spray with formaldehyde or carbaryl can be used, with a home mix of crude oil and stock dip as an alternative. Apply in spring before populations surge.
