Description
Take the fight against red mite to where they hide with Belgian Winners Licefree Protect Spray Pigeon Loft Mite Spray, a 500 ml ready-to-use loft spray in a trigger bottle. The solution is based on silicon dioxide, whose microscopic crystals leave a fine white layer on perches, nests and cracks. When blood mites and lice cross that layer on their way to feed on your birds, the crystals scrub and damage their outer skin so they dry out and die. It works mechanically rather than with a chemical insecticide, so you can repeat it as often as the loft needs.
Key Features
- Red mite and lice control: Targets the blood mites and lice that hide in the loft by day and feed on pigeons at night.
- Silicon dioxide, not chemicals: The exfoliating, desiccating action of the crystals does the work, with no pesticide residue.
- Ready to use: No mixing; spray straight from the bottle from about 30 cm away.
- Pigeon loft mite spray that pairs with Licefree Protect Oral: Using the spray on the loft and the oral product on the birds together gives the best results.
- About Belgian Winners: Winners is the Belgian racing-pigeon care range from Vanrobaeys, and Licefree Protect is its two-part mite and lice program.
How to Use It
Remove or cover the feeders and drinkers before you start. Spray all surfaces from a distance of 30 cm, paying most attention to perches, nest boxes and nest bowls, then work into the corners, cracks and crevices where mites cluster during the day. Let the white powder layer dry in place; that layer is what catches the mites. Repeat the treatment when red mite reappears or as soon as loft dust covers the white layer, since a buried layer stops working. Treat the loft at the start of breeding and again before the moult, and combine it with Licefree Protect Oral for the birds themselves. Store the bottle in a dry, cool place.
