Dergall is a unique product which immobilises red mites by
mechanical means rather than systemically.
Dergall is non-toxic therefore safe for birds, eggs, humans
and the environment. Presentation is in a 1 litre bottle of concentrated emulsion,
mixed to a 0.6% solution before using; 1 litres makes 166 litres of spray on
solution. This product has a knock-down effect along with continued action on
surfaces for 2-3 days. We advise to spray it at the end of the day to maximise
the efficacy of the product, so red mites come into contact with it as soon as
they are active after lights are out. Dergall is activated when mixed with
water creating a microscopic network on surfaces which traps and suffocates the
red mites.

The recommended treatment regime is to spray the equipment within the house before lights are out, then repeat in 5-7 days to destroy any newly hatched nymphs. We recommend you regularly assess the levels of chicken red mites on your site to assist with targeting treatments to give successful management. We have other red mite control options should you be interested, please email our technical manager on info@poultrypharm.co.uk.
