The red mite is one of the most common parasites found in chicken coops. They are particularly active at night. They emerge from their hiding places, find a suitable host, and feed on its blood. During the day, however, the mites hide in the cracks and crevices of the coop. But other darker places are also their favorites. This is where the mite feels safe and protected. Their presence causes considerable damage. Every year, countless chickens suffer from mite infestations. Even in professional poultry farming, the red mite still poses a problem. As an ectoparasite, the red mite specializes in birds as hosts. Similar to ticks, the red mite feeds on the blood of its hosts. The often massive presence of the red mite causes enormous stress in the chickens, which can have negative effects on all animals. However, the stress factor is only one of several factors that make a red mite infestation a nightmare for every breeder. Added to this are the acute dangers to life due to blood loss, inflammation at the puncture sites, and the transmission of disease. All these problems are now a thing of the past. A treatment is finally available. Your animals will experience immediate relief and help reduce the mite population to a minimum. The treatment consists of two products: Adele Mite-Free and Gustav Mite Stop.
