The Gardening Naturally Poultry Mite Control Powder is an essential tool for chicken keepers looking to protect their flock from blood-feeding red mites, which can cause severe health issues like anaemia and reduced egg laying. Utilizing a natural, mineral-based formula, this powder provides a non-toxic method for controlling crawling insects; however, users must be diligent about applying the treatment directly to mite refuges for optimal effectiveness.

Yes, the product is made from natural Silicium dioxide and is safe for use in poultry environments.
Apply as needed to maintain a protective barrier, especially when signs of mite activity increase or during warmer months when mite reproduction peaks.
The product is primarily designed for coating the environment and refuges where mites live; avoid dusting the birds directly.
It is highly effective against red mites and other crawling insects that have an exoskeleton vulnerable to desiccation.
Mix the powder with clean water according to the manufacturer's suggested ratio, ensuring it stays well-suspended while spraying.
Red mites have complex life cycles; re-apply the powder to cover areas that were missed and ensure all hiding spots are treated.
Ensure the application area is completely dry. If the powder has absorbed moisture in storage, sieve it or break up clumps before use.
To prepare the area, ensure your coop is clean and dry. For dry application, use a dusting applicator to achieve a light, even film—avoid heavy clumping, as mites are more likely to walk over thin layers. When mixing for liquid application, follow the 30-50 g/m² dosage guideline to maintain the appropriate concentration for insect desiccation. Store the container in a cool, dry place to prevent the powder from clumping due to moisture absorption. While the product is safe for chickens, wear a mask during application to avoid inhaling the fine mineral dust.
