Feather louse also a victim of Dutchy’s®

It looks as if the predatory mites are fighting the feather louse in its various life stages outside the bird. The larvae and nymph stages of this louse are also likely to hide in the cracks and crevices of the cage or coop and fall prey to the Dutchy’s®.

The feather louse (Menacanthus stramineus) damages the plumage, which is not yet fully developed in young birds. When the feathers unfold later, they are eaten away and the damage can no longer be repaired. Due to its hidden way of life, the feather louse is an annoying parasite that causes problems for many bird and poultry lovers every year. People who are confronted with this infestation should not apply Dutchy’s® in too high a dosage. If an infestation is detected, the application should be carried out as described in the instructions for use.
