AniForte® Mite-STOP Powder is an insecticide suitable for biocidal application around poultry. It works against ectoparasites, such as the red mite and other pests, including fleas, animal lice or beetles. AniForte Mite-STOP Powder for chickens is applied to the parasites' preferred routes and hiding places, thus ensuring effective long-term protection - without having to treat the animals directly.
AniForte Mite-STOP Powder for chickens consists of diatomaceous earth and is particularly effective against pest infestations, which makes it just the right remedy to eliminate chicken mites and support chicken health by keeping harmful parasites away. The mixture of minerals kills chicken mites in a purely physical way. The fine powder can penetrate even the smallest crevices in the chicken coop. This is where the pests like to hide during the day. AniForte Mite-STOP Powder for chickens ensures that the small insects can no longer move and their respiratory organs and joints are getting blocked. This will dry out the mites from the inside out.
If you are faced with an acute mite infestation in your chicken coop, AniForte Mite-STOP Powder for chickens is the right choice to get rid of the small pests, and it forms an effective combination with AniForte Mite-STOP Spray.
