Products → https://www.howtowithdoc.com/mites-on... Doc explains how to kill and prevent mites on chickens and gives real data from studies. There are several methods and products, ranging from synthetic chemicals to natural treatments. You simply need to choose which is best for your chickens. While lime (particularly hydrated lime or slaked lime, calcium hydroxide) is commonly recommended in poultry management for odor control, moisture absorption, and sanitation, scientific research and expert analyses indicate it has limited or no direct acaricidal (mite-killing) efficacy against poultry mites like the northern fowl mite (Ornithonyssus sylviarum) or red poultry mite (Dermanyssus gallinae). Its primary role is environmental modification (e.g., raising pH to deter reproduction), but it does not reliably kill mites on birds or in coops.
