“Immediately after hatching, the chickens keep pecking mites and fleas from under the wing. They keep scratching themselves too. I found immersing them in treated water to be the most effective method after powders failed,” she said.
Njeri said heavy infestation leads to significant loss of weight because the chicken feeds less frequently while brooding while the pests keep ‘taxing’ blood.
Brooding usually takes place in nests, which may be dusty. The continuous warmth from the chicken, she says, supports the multiplication of the parasites.
“Immersion works up to 99 percent because the chemical seeps into the body of the parasites even after the chicken shakes off while drying. As it dries, the paste remains on the body of the pesticide and starts deteriorating its skin,” she said.
It is not easy to see parasites. But a keen look into the skin under strong sunlight will show speckling deposits. The deposits are parasite droppings.
Caution should be exercised during immersion, she warns. Read more here.
