Help!!!
I had a massive red / grey mite infestation last year ... I did all the above burnt the coop built a new one bought a plastic coop. My chicken coop is mite free .. I am not. They have taken over my garden and at night are all over my window ledges and house ...I fought with a bathroom window to keep them out last night. I am at my wits end. I called in pest control and they said that there is nothing that they can do ... I have managed to insecticide my own house but I am finding them creeping in. Last night I taped up my bathroom window are I had an invasion. I have moved out of my own home for now as I am so freaked out. I went out in the garden last night to check my coop at midnight with a torch and it seems mite free as have been smiting and diatomacsous earthing and poultry shielding but they were all over the walls of my house!! I have moved out today as I am so worried about my cats and dogs ... I have left my chickens to fend for themselves as I had a horrendous night trying to keep the mites at bay. I have an old house where the windows don't fit and there are holes into the house everywhere. It is a timber framed house and I am scared that they are living in the walls. I don't know what to do. I have been smiting the garden and the pest man said they have moved to the walls of my house because they can no longer be on the ground as i have smitted everywhere and have dia all around my house. I don't know what to do and don't want to go home. I have moved in with my dad ... can anyone help me!! My garden and house walls are overrun and I can't get up to the roof of the house to deal with them. I was so badly bitten last year and all my animals and myself fought to get rid of them. I wish that I had never had chickens as I can no longer go out in my garden or let my animals out. I just go out to check on girls and run back in ... my life has become unbearable... I don't know what to do!
