Verwendung

Follow all safety instructions carefully. This is a professional-grade treatment requiring proper precautions.

Before Treatment:

  1. Remove All Livestock: Chickens and all other animals must be completely removed from the treatment area. Do not allow re-entry until fully ventilated.
  2. Prepare the Area: Make the space as airtight as possible by closing windows, doors, and blocking ventilation holes. Cover or remove all food, water containers, feeders, and eating utensils. Remove or cover fish tanks if present in the area.
  3. Calculate Requirements: Each 3.5g bomb treats approximately 7.2 cubic metres (2m x 2m x 1.8m). For larger coops, use multiple bombs equally spaced throughout the area.

During Treatment:

  1. Wear Protection: Always wear a safety mask during setup.
  2. Position Smoke Bomb: Place on a heat-resistant surface such as an old ceramic plate or metal tray in the centre of the treatment area.
  3. Ignite and Exit: Light the fuse and immediately leave the treatment area, closing all doors behind you. Do not remain in the area once smoke begins.

After Treatment:

  1. Wait Period: Leave the area completely sealed for 2-3 hours to allow thorough fumigation and dispersal.
  2. Ventilate Thoroughly: Open all windows and doors. Ventilate for at least 30 minutes before allowing anyone or any animals to re-enter.
  3. Verify Extinguished: Ensure the smoke bomb is completely cold before handling or disposal. Dispose of safely according to local regulations.

Important: This is a biocidal product. Use only as directed. Read all safety information before use.

What Makes It Special?

Red mite infestations can reach crisis levels where spot treatments simply aren't enough. These parasites hide in microscopic cracks during the day, emerging at night to feed on sleeping birds. Manual treatments cannot reach every hiding spot, allowing populations to persist and rebuild. That's where fumigation becomes essential.

Smoke bombs work by converting permethrin insecticide into a fine smoke that disperses throughout the entire treatment area. Unlike sprays or powders that only contact surfaces you can reach, smoke penetrates every crack, crevice, roof joint, and hiding place where red mites shelter. The permethrin settles on all surfaces, creating a comprehensive treatment zone that eliminates parasites wherever they hide.

The 13.25% permethrin concentration makes these bombs the strongest available for consumer use. Permethrin is a synthetic pyrethroid - a man-made version of natural pyrethrins found in chrysanthemum flowers. It works by disrupting the nervous system of arthropods, causing paralysis and death. Whilst highly effective against insects and mites, it breaks down relatively quickly after application, reducing long-term environmental persistence.

What sets professional-grade smoke bombs apart is the complete coverage they provide. Combined with thorough cleaning before treatment and preventative measures afterwards, fumigation can break even severe infestation cycles. However, this is serious pest control requiring strict safety protocols - always follow instructions precisely.

Best Practices for Red Mite Management

Smoke bombs are most effective as part of comprehensive red mite control:

Before Treatment:

  1. Remove all bedding, perches, and removable equipment
  2. Thoroughly clean the coop, removing organic matter
  3. Scrub all surfaces with appropriate cleaners
  4. Allow to dry completely before fumigation

After Treatment:

  1. Clean surfaces that chickens will contact directly
  2. Replace bedding with fresh, clean material
  3. Apply diatomaceous earth to cracks and nest boxes for ongoing control
  4. Monitor flock regularly for signs of re-infestation

Ongoing Prevention:

  • Regular coop cleaning and maintenance
  • Diatomaceous earth in dust baths and nest boxes
  • Proper ventilation to reduce humidity
  • Routine flock health checks
Häufig gestellte Fragen

How quickly does the smoke bomb work?

The permethrin smoke disperses throughout the sealed area within minutes and begins killing mites on contact. The 2-3 hour sealed period ensures thorough penetration into all cracks and complete fumigation.

Do I really need to remove my chickens?

Absolutely - this is non-negotiable. Permethrin smoke is harmful to birds, animals, and humans if inhaled during treatment. All livestock must be completely removed until the area is thoroughly ventilated.

Can I use this in an occupied building?

No. The treatment area must be completely vacated by all people and animals. If treating a coop attached to your home, ensure complete separation and seal all connecting points.

How long before my chickens can return?

After the 2-3 hour treatment period, ventilate thoroughly for minimum 30 minutes with all windows and doors open. Only allow chickens back once the area is completely aired out and smells normal.

Will one smoke bomb be enough for my coop?

Each 3.5g bomb treats approximately 7.2 cubic metres (2m x 2m x 1.8m). Measure your coop and use multiple bombs if needed, spacing them evenly throughout the area for complete coverage.

Does it leave residue on surfaces?

Once fully dispersed and ventilated, the smoke leaves no visible residue or staining. However, permethrin does settle on surfaces (this is how it kills mites), though at levels not visible or harmful once properly ventilated.

Will this harm beneficial insects like bees?

Keep smoke contained within the sealed treatment area. Do not use in areas where bees or other beneficial insects are present. The fumigation is contained when used properly in enclosed structures.

Can I use this in my house for other pests?

Yes, these smoke bombs are effective against spiders, moths, cluster flies, and cockroaches in homes. Follow the same safety precautions - vacate the area, seal it, treat, then ventilate thoroughly.

How often can I treat my coop?

For severe infestations, you may need to repeat treatment after 7-10 days to break the lifecycle. However, frequent fumigation isn't sustainable - combine with regular cleaning and preventative measures.

Is permethrin safe around chickens after treatment?

Once the area is properly ventilated, permethrin residues are at safe levels. Permethrin breaks down relatively quickly, especially in sunlight. Never allow chickens back until the area is completely aired out.

Will this kill red mite eggs?

Permethrin is less effective against eggs than adult mites. This is why repeat treatment after 7-10 days is often necessary - to kill newly hatched mites before they can reproduce.

What if I have fish near the treatment area?

Permethrin is extremely toxic to fish and aquatic life. Remove fish tanks entirely from the treatment area, or cover very securely. Better yet, move them to a completely separate location during treatment.

Can I use this during winter?

Yes, though effectiveness may be slightly reduced in very cold temperatures. Red mites can persist year-round in heated coops, so winter treatment may be necessary for severe infestations.

Do I need protective equipment?

Always wear a safety mask during setup and ignition. Consider gloves and eye protection as well. Do not remain in the area once smoke begins - exit immediately.
