What do members consider to be the best pigeon dip available  for lasting results on all lice etc? Personally I used to dilute Duramitex and put it in plant sprayer. 2 sprays under each wing kept them lice free all season. Have not tried new Duramitex but am looking for a good alternative in dip form, any help appreciated. Thanks

Chlorocarb
yes i think this is the best and when you have used it as a dip you can store it in a container and use it in a spray rest of season around the loft.

no doubt chlorcarb...and your m8 can use it for his birds after!

2 yrs ago..3 of us used it with a average 100 birds each..1 sachet...and the birds stay clean for months.

Do you wear gloves when using it or is it ok on your skin????

 

No never use gloves as i was worried about pulling feathers out and i just wash my hands after it never had any problems and been doing it for years

This is what i use

 

Pulvex Pour On Large dogs 30ml, to 10L water.

Its composition is: Chlorpyrifos and Permethrin.

 

U can even put drops undiluted on your bird, i do this once a year and there are no lice or flies to be seen!

Found the modern duramitex to be poor, have used Chlorcarb for years and very effective but the best product I ever used was called Ectophen, absolutely brilliant and then it was taken off the market. They brought out a newer version after but it was never as good as the original. Wish I could get it now !!!!!!!!

Try this a great dip infact you get two flavours and a candy stick to dip in , no good for birds but kids love em ;)

Chloracarb is the best dip you can use for your pigeons available in different sized packets

 

Chloracarb can be purchased from many places boddy and ridewood springs to mind :)

 

Also i would like to say duramitex is still available to buy and this is brilliant for putting in a spray bottle and spraying inside the pigeons nest boxes.
