Hello fello farmers, how can I control lice? The lice chemicals I know of are pour-ons which you apply individually on the birds. But in a case where you have over 500 birds, do you treat them individually?
Put a lice medicine in a dust bath and allow the birds to dustbath in it. That would be better.
Nice tip @Farmtech.
To boost hen health, help ward off mites, lice, cold etc, give them garlic. Chop or pound 1 cove per hen and add to their feed.
