Re: How to eliminate mites in Nest Boxes
hmmm... well if i were you i would wait till they leave the nest boxes, and then disinfect them. if they don't leave, do that anyway. do you feed them or give them water? you should give them the earth stuff, I've heard its good for parasites in cattle and large animals, but i think it might me more for worms. put it in their food and water anyway, and it might kill off the mites, and any worms too. i think your supposed to do that for 2 weeks, but as their squirrels and probably can get them easily, i would just make it as a regular thing. i will do some research for you
