"on the backs of the boxes and perches" Unless I've missed something I think its the 'backs' of the pigeons... I generally use an insecticidal spray for the nest boxes and ivermectin drops for the birds.... works well. :)

 

All da best.

It used to be van vermin-x and was made by van hee one drop in each nest box under the bowl and ten drops on floor, Cleared out all flies lice and mites.

There's been a few looking for it, but it seems to be taken off the market now. I'm told that it was ether-based, and fumes killed everything. I'm also told that also included 2/3 days old youngsters in the nest, so perhaps that's why it's no longer available.

you have to take all the birds from the loft when you use it.its good stuff.i have read where one fancier put all his o/b in a basket and left them on the loft floor,killed them all.

The stuff we are talking about on here is not for use on the birds. Chances are you'd kill them if you did.

Hi any no were to get the one drop for mites and lice that you put on the backs of the boxes and perches. Not the one spot you put on the birds. Thanks

 

i got something similar from a pigeon supplier beside stirling

its called B V M P if i remember corectly

 

you put your birds in a basket in the loft with 2 or 3 drops

and leave for 20 minutes

after that they are all clear

alternativly you can put a drop on each perch/box

dont put any near y/bs in the nest as it will kill them in minutes

as my mate found out to his cost

BVP Vermin X by belga-vet products. Not to sure who sells the product but if you google it you'll soon find that it is available and very similar to the Van Hee product.

Did anyone find a similar product to the vanhee one?

Id used it without any problems.

If a vet or chemist would prescribe it

Its 10% DDVP Dichlorphos
