Is your birds natural immunity so poor, they need to live in a sterile environment, like Michael Jackson. He clearly looks a picture of health.

styerile enviroments don't work look at hospital superbugs , but removing a few moths tics or lice is hardly lowering the birds immune system quite the opposite its making the birds more able to rest and not been disturbed bt scatching or itching , puncture holes in a birds wind effects its wings uplift and downforce so a nice lice free wing helps a birds performance

[peterpau]

So why not treat for lice etc

[OLDYELLOW]

because theres mites which wont be on the birds but in crevaces these take blood from the birds and make them tap there feet when there resting at night , which will reduce the birds performance

regarding smoke bombs. The modern smoke bombs are not very good, I have found. You would be better using Poultry Shield or a product like it. The walls of the loft including the nestboxes and perches could have red mite hidding in them. Poultry Shield applied with a sprayer will sort them out. The floor should be treated against cocci and worms. A good distinfectant will do that for you.

i have to agree with your post i mainly use the smoke bombs to check ventilation and remove moths in order to remove other nasties i dilute malathon liquid and spray the cracks and floor , for a full disinfect i use Jeyes fluid

Best to use an Ivomectine treatment on the bird to kill the blod suckers

Sterile envitoment might lower your bird natural immunity.

Want going to be harmful for your brid, you should remove it.

Why kill something, want not doing no harm?

smoke bombs are good for clearing the pigeons airways and checking out your ventilation but as far as killing bugs goes your as well as standing in your loft and farting
