scaley leg mites are hard to get rid of sometimes - perseverance is the key

Koops = try thoroughly cleaning out their pen as well as treating the birds =
shovel out all you can then scrub all surfaces with a stiff brush especially in corners and where wood meets and the underside of all perches

IF you have a gurney = gurney the pen out once you have cleaned as well as you can manually as the high pressure of the water helps clear out left over dirt and bugs

Then Lime Wash everything = the lime shrinks up little beasties as it dries MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA [smilie=a_chuckle.gif]

viewtopic.php?f=43&t=31941&hilit=+lime+wash


and try Vasoline on the birds legs rub it in from bottom to top so it gets under each scale
you can also try washing and drying them before you use the vasoline and before they go back into their clean pen = overkill maybe but every little bit helps!

AND it is that time of the year when you need to clean out the pens anyway as the birds have pretty much finished their annual moult and you need to get rid of all those feathers = so why not get rid of all their old poop and any little beasties as well and take the opportunity to Lime Wash
