brilliant job by urself Ian.....thoughts about permetherin are interesting

In most mite sprays permetherin is a percentage in ingredients ...i buy fly spray now from local pound shop, permetherin an active ingredient and that does my birds and the loft....Probably dont spray it enough though.

 

well done to all who took part and to those who in for the trial on permetherin

permitherin will be good for any loft ian will spray mines but as you know ive 12 lofts some 40 feet long 14 feet wide will need alot for this think this could be on the rite lines as i think the fly spreads ybs. will also be trying small bags of water hanging from inside of roofs tae keep the flys away this year :drinking-coffee-200:

Right or wrong,one thing that my mate and I observed was when you start getting moths in your drinking water young bird sickness isn't far away ?

Might be a million miles away,then again it might not be ?

Quite right Billy but if things are going wrong doing the same thing over and over again will only produce the same failed result

 

Good on you if you don't have problems but those that have are looking for answers and not receiving any help just unproven products with no Guarantees except you will not get your money back

diatomaceous earth has anyone used that product ???

 

I have used it. I found it quite dusty and wasn't really impressed by it. Other on here say it is a good product and wouldn't be without it. :)
