This auction is for 500ml of Appletons Poultry SAFEGuard Concentrate.

The Ultimate Solution to a Mite Free Hen House. Red mites reproduce rapidly. These nasty bugs don’t live on your chickens but hide in the framework of your coop, perches and nest boxes, only coming out at night to feed on the blood of your birds. The result is they become stressed, suffering anaemia, reducing egg production and even death if not treated. Red mites are also very difficult to control, so Appletons have developed Poultry SAFEGuard which dissolves any red mites it comes into contact with. It’s also a powerful disinfectant, killing bacteria, viruses and odour in coops. Appletons Poultry SAFEguard is New Zealand made and best of all it is very economical. It is a concentrate which you mix with water as you need it - you get 64 litres of mite-fighting solution from our 1-litre containers, and that makes it a lot more cost-effective when compared to other similar available products. Available in 500ml, 1L and 5L Concentrate bottles. For best results follow instructions on bottle.

We recommend first cleaning the hen house with Appletons Poultry SAFEGuard and then when dry applying the Appletons De-Mite Powder (perfect for residual control and follow after spraying) on perches, in nest boxes. Dust Appletons De-Mite Powder into all the corners, joints around the house, perches, nest boxes.The mites will crawl through the powder to get to the birds. The powder scratches the red mites waxy outer covering of their exoskeletons causing them to slowly dehydrate and die. This product is 100% natural and can be used safely in organic systems. There is no withholding period for meat or eggs.
