We recommend every 4 to 12 weeks. Please wear a nose and mouth protector when undertaking this job due to all the fine dander and dust particles which could carry all sorts of nasty bacteria or fungi. We use a wide-mouthed shovel brush, pan, paint scraper and big plastic bin to clean our houses. Remove the bulk of litter using the shovel and then sweep out the rest with a brush and pan, and then using a scraper remove any necessary stubborn bits. Sweep out. Mix up Poultry Safeguard Concentrate to the correct dilution (see instructions on the bottle) and spray onto dry timbers. For residual red mite control, we recommend using Appletons De-Mite Powder in your hen house regularly. If your hen house smells bad and attracts flies, something is not working. A chook house should have no odour and be a sweet-smelling home for your chooks. How to Clean an Omlet Chicken CoopEmpty the dropping tray regularly (daily if you prefer or weekly) and replace with a thin layer of fresh wood shavings. Once a month, we recommend cleaning the roosting bars and droppings tray and cleaning out the nest box. Washing the plastic trays and bars is recommended. This is a good time to check for red mite and other creepy crawlies! For residual control, dust roosting bars, perch rails and nest box bedding with Appletons De-Mite Powder.

Our top-selling coop cleaner. Voted the best solution to keep on top of red mites in poultry housing. The ultimate solution to a mite-free hen house. No other cleaner does the job better! High-performance cleaner, sanitiser and odour neutraliser. Powerful disinfectant kills micro-organisms, bacteria and viruses. Dissolves and eliminates red mite on contact. Economical - 1L makes up to 50L solution. No egg withholding period. Can also be safely used to disinfect your brooders and incubators. Available in 500ml, 1L and 5L concentrate bottles. Suitable for all animal housing. Understanding Red Mite Red mites reproduce rapidly, especially in warmer weather. These nasty critters don't live on your chickens. They live and hide in the framework of your coop, roosts and nest boxes, coming out at night to feed on your birds' blood. As a result your chickens become stressed, suffer from anaemia, experience reduced egg production, and may even die if not treated. Managing red mites can be incredibly difficult, which is why Appletons developed Poultry Safeguard. This New Zealand-made concentrate dissolves mites on contact and acts as a powerful, economical disinfectant that kills bacteria, viruses, and odours in coops. Poultry Safeguard is a non-toxic blend of high-foaming surfactants, sequestrates, alkaline builders, and quaternary ammonium compounds (QACs). It effectively dissolves waxy accumulations and targets a range of microbes and micro-organisms, including mildew, moulds, fungi, Avian Influenza Virus, Avian Infectious Bronchitis, and Newcastle's disease. Instructions Do not pre-wash or water blast your coop or hen house before using this product.Remove all poultry from the treatment area. Do not spray directly onto birds. Remove all floor litter, droppings and nest box material from the house. Scrap off any debris from perches and walls. For best results, ensure roosts are removable. Mix up solution to recommended dose in a backpack sprayer or pressured hand sprayer. Apply mixed solution directly onto dry surfaces. Thoroughly spray all surfaces, including cracks, joints, framing, and crevices. Pay special attention to perches (roosting areas) and nest boxes (laying areas). Leave to air dry and then rinse off with potable water (water suitable for drinking). The rinse-off is optional for timber housing. When the house is dry, dust perches and nest boxes with Appletons De-Mite Powder. (The two-pronged approach is best when you are treating for red mites) Replace with fresh floor litter and nesting box material. Your coop or hen house is now ready to let birds back inside. Repeat the treatment in 5 to 7 days if you are experiencing red mites. This will treat any juvenile mites that have hatched since the first treatment. Repeat spraying will break the breeding cycle and help to prevent re-infestation. In severe infestations, repeat treatment at the higher dose every 5 to 7 days until under control. Ongoing MaintenanceRegular cleaning, especially in the warmer months, with a maintenance dose will keep housing free of disease and red mite under control. ℹ️ Learn more FACT SHEET: Chicken Health – Mites - understand red mite behaviour, signs of infestation, and how to treat your flock Blog: Red Mite in Poultry Housing 😡 What To Do - practical steps for tackling a red mite infestation Chicken Health 101 - a complete guide to keeping your flock healthy Blog: Take a Peek in your Chicken Coop 👀 - a handy guide to spotting early signs of trouble in your coop Shop Red Mite and Coop Care Products - browse our full range of coop cleaning and mite control products

A natural NZ-made repellent to deter and prevent red mite infestations in poultry sheds, coops, hutches or houses. Banshee is a blend of natural plant essential oils in a mineral oil carrier, featuring emulsifiers that allow it to mix easily with water for easy application. To use, simply mix and spray the solution onto coop surfaces. There is no need to treat the birds directly. Banshee works by disrupting mite activity, encouraging them to leave treated areas and reducing infestations over time. It is a safe, effective, and easy-to-use solution for ongoing coop protection. Directions for Use:Banshee is straightforward to use, only requiring a pressurised sprayer, such as a common 'garden sprayer' or 'trigger sprayer' found in hardware stores. The birds should be moved out of the area to be treated until the spray solution has dried.The product is added to water at the correct use rate depending on the type of sprayer used: 80ml per 5 litres of water for a garden sprayer, or 16ml per litre of water. 80ml per 100m2 of treated area if a more elaborate professional or commercial sprayer is being used. FAQs Is Banshee an insecticide?No, Banshee is not an insecticide as it is designed to repel mites away from poultry housing. Does Banshee smell?Banshee is made using an essential oil blend and has a characteristic odour which comes from the essential oils used. Some people like the odour, some people don't. Will resistance develop with Banshee?It is very unlikely that resistance will occur due to its use as a repellent and the blend of essential oils used. How do I determine how much water my sprayer applies over 100m2?A typical 'garden sprayer' will apply 5L of water per 100m2 of treated area which would require a dilution rate of 80 ml Banshee in 5L of water, or 16 ml Banshee per litre of water. What do you mean by 'Don't spray past the point of run off'?Products such as Banshee should be applied as a fine spray, where the spray droplets are very small. Ideally these should cover the surface evenly, but not to the point where they pool together to form larger droplets on the surface. This is called the point of run off. If this occurs these larger droplets can run (vertical) or drip (ceilings) off the surface, and means too much spray has been applied. Does Banshee kill mites?Unfortunately, the terms of our registration exemption state that we can only talk about the use of Banshee as a repellent. We encourage people to purchase and try Banshee to draw their own conclusions. Does Banshee work on other mites, such as Tropical Fowl Mite and Northern Fowl Mite?Both of these mite species live on the birds themselves, so require a treatment directly onto the birds. We cannot recommend that Banshee is used in this manner. Technical Information: Banshee was developed by Renovo Technologies in response to a request from a commercial grower. The commercial grower continued to use Banshee with outstanding results on flock health.The success of Banshee has encouraged Renovo Technologies to make it available to a larger group of users in pack sizes which suit all scales of poultry farming, from small urban/lifestyle through to large commercial growers. Banshee contains no synthetic insecticides and is easy to use. It is available in the following pack sizes and configurations: 240mL pack with included measuring cylinder, which is sufficient for 15L of spray mix 5L pack for commercial growers and larger-scale operations Banshee Safety Data Sheet Banshee works by repelling red mites from poultry housing and, in the process, preventing mite infestations in the birds. The essential oil blend was specifically formulated to deter red mites from a treated area, based on extensive research and consultation with a commercial grower and veterinarians in New Zealand. As can be seen in the video below, red mites will actively stay away from any surface treated with Banshee. This is a result of the essential oils used and while they smell appealing to people, they are avoided at all costs by red mites. Red mites live on surfaces and in cracks and crevices and only migrate onto the bird to feed. If the mite harbourages in chicken housing are not attractive places for red mites to congregate then they move out and away from the birds. This reduces the ease of getting a blood feed from the birds and so reduces the egg laying from the female red mites.A repeated program of treatments should see the numbers of red mites lessen through attrition described above and eventually eliminate their presence form the chicken coop completely. Banshee has a number of benefits over other products which are used for red mites: Assessed to be exempt from regulations by the ACVM Safer with low toxicity from natural essential oils instead of harsh synthetic chemicals No crystalline silica, a cancer causing impurity found in diatomaceous earth Low residual product Applied to surfaces, not directly to the birds resulting in less stress on the birds ℹ️ Learn more FACT SHEET: Chicken Health – Mites - understand red mite behaviour, signs of infestation, and how to treat your flock Blog: Red Mite in Poultry Housing 😡 What To Do - practical steps for tackling a red mite infestation Blog: Dissecting Diatomaceous Earth - how diatomaceous earth works and why it's effective against mites Chicken Health 101 - a complete guide to keeping your flock healthy Shop Red Mite and Coop Care Products - browse our full range of coop cleaning and mite control products

Keep on top of red mites naturally. The Anti Red Mite Kit offers a natural and highly effective way to control them by preventing them from reaching your chickens via the roost (perch). Red mites visit your chickens on the roost every night. The mites drink themselves full of blood and go back to their hiding place. The consequences for your poultry are serious. Your chickens can become seriously anaemic and even die from it. Red mite can also cause reduced egg production. Young chickens are particularly susceptible to these mites, which hide in all the cracks and crevices of your chicken coop. The Advantages of Using the Anti Red Mite Kit The only total solution on the market A natural and very effective way of fighting Rotatable red mite trays so no dirt gets in Includes long wall brackets and mounting material Simple to attach Rotating Red Mite Trays and Wall Brackets The kit includes two rotatable trays, designed for easy and mess-free refilling of oil. Olba has also provided two long wall brackets with press nuts and fixing materials. For optimal results in preventing red mites from reaching the chickens, a minimum distance of 8cm between the perch and the hen house wall is required. ✅ Easy to Use Attaching the Anti Red Mite Kit is simple. Fill the rotating trays three-quarters full with the oil of your choice, which will prevent mites from reaching your chickens. It is important to regularly check the trays. If you notice any red mites, it is advisable to treat the rest of the hen house as well. Additionally, ensure that the red mite trays always contain enough oil to maintain this natural and effective method of pest control.

Chickens love to dust bath! Your Appletons Dust Bath Refill Kit includes: 1 cup calcium carbonate.1 x 1.5kg Fine Sand.1 cup Wood Ash.A dash of Medicinal Herbs (depending on availability can be lavender, lemon balm or mint). All chickens get clean by getting dirty 😊Just like a human bathtub, a dust bath is all about cleanliness. It's not only chickens who like to hit the dirt – you may spot other birds such as sparrows and blackbirds taking a dust bath too. The dust or sand absorbs surplus moisture and oils on the skin. A dirt bath maintains the water resistance of the outer feathers of a chicken. It also deters parasites such as mites and lice by coating the insects' breathing pores or simply driving them away. Dust bathing is an important part of keeping chickens healthy and clean. Once fully coated in dust or sand, the chicken will have a shake-down, just like a dog after a dip in a river. A quick preen of the feathers, and they'll be all done and dusted. Literally. In addition to these physical benefits, dust-bathing is also thought to be mentally rewarding for hens. It helps them relax, and is a way of socialising too.Keep your hens mite and lice free with an Appletons Dust Bath Kit. ℹ️ Learn more Blog: How To Make A Dust Bath For Your Chickens - step-by-step guide to setting up the perfect dust bath FACT SHEET: Chicken Health – Mites - understand red mite behaviour and how to protect your flock Blog: Do My Chickens Have Lice? - how to identify and treat lice in your flock Chicken Health 101 - a complete guide to keeping your flock healthy Blog: Busy Hens are Happy Hens - ideas for keeping your flock entertained and thriving

Very effective for treating poultry lice. Used with great results in poultry circles as a reliable treatment for most internal and external parasites. Generally used for the treatment of poultry lice and scaly leg mite, but will also kill any red mites that try to suck off your chicken. It is a topical treatment applied directly to the skin of the bird. It is approved for use on other farm animals but has not been officially approved for use on poultry, hence the recommended 10 day withholding period for eggs (and 63 in NZ for meat).This little bottle will treat a good number of birds.Dosage rate is 0.1ml per 1kg live body weight.Approximately 60 treatments. (calculated on 60 brown shavers that weigh 2.5kg each )Available in a dropper bottle with a nozzle and cap for handy dosing. Helpful Notes. What are you treating your birds for? Worms? We recommend using an approved wormer for treating worms in poultry. Our recommended choice for laying birds is Flubenol, as there is no withholding period for eggs. If treating birds that are not laying then Aviverm is easier to dose. Please note that with Aviverm, there is an 8-day withholding period for egg consumption. If using pour-on drench, please note it does not kill all types of internal worms. We recommend following up treatment within the prepatent period of the particular worm you are treating for. Lice? If you are treating for external parasites, eg, a one-off treatment usually does the trick; however, if not all birds are treated and the hen house is not thoroughly cleaned (disinfected), then birds can reinfest quickly. For best practice, we recommend checking birds after 7 to 10 days and repeating the treatment as lice eggs can hatch in this period of time. We generally inspect (physical health check) our birds 2 to 4 times a year (usually when the seasons change) and treat them accordingly for lice. We find that the pour-on drench, when dosed correctly, works brilliantly for lice control. Important Considerations. Off-Label Use: Cydectin is approved for use in other farm animals like cattle and sheep, but does not have an official, scientifically tested withholding period for poultry specific to the label. The recommended periods for poultry are derived from New Zealand's default withholding periods for unregistered veterinary medicines in birds, ensuring human food safety. Active Ingredient Accumulation: The active ingredient, moxidectin, is highly lipophilic (fat-loving) and accumulates in fatty tissues, including the egg yolk, which causes residues to persist for a longer period. Correct Dosage: It is crucial to use the correct dosage (applied to the skin, such as under the wing or on the back of the neck). Egg Management: Eggs laid during the withholding period should not be eaten or fed back to the flock, as this can reintroduce the chemical into the birds' systems and prolong the withdrawal period. They can, however, be used for incubation. Don't feed them to other animals, such as dogs, as residues may affect them too. Poison. Keep away from children. Please note this is a liquid and we cannot slip it into a courier satchel - it needs to be sent in a box. ℹ️ Learn more FACT SHEET: Chicken Health – Mites - understand red mite behaviour, signs of infestation, and treatment options FACT SHEET: Chicken Health – Scaly Leg Mites - identify and treat scaly leg mite in your flock FACT SHEET: Chicken Health – Worms - identify worm species, symptoms, and how to break the worm life cycle Chicken Health 101 - a complete guide to keeping your flock healthy
