Blutsauger – mites

What great importance regarding the blood has on the performance of the pigeon is well known. One issue that is rarely addressed in this context are the mites.

Check now and then your pigeons (Red or check pigeons best) by holding the open sash against the light. Just off the quills that only about 1 mm wide, persistent and very unpleasant is to recognize "red mite". Is this very difficult to control type does not exist, everything is fine.

Moreover, the blood mite is a dangerous parasite, the day hiding in cracks and crevices in shock. At night, he attacks the animals and so caused unrest. The pigeons clatter in the Nistzellen.
In chickens widespread remains the Afflicted with sarcoptic mange and incredibly stubborn Nordic mite.

In addition to the unrest that spread these bloodsuckers, they weaken the pigeons in that they deprive the animal blood. In extreme cases, the pigeons can lose 2.5% of their body weight in blood. This necessitates performance drops by itself. Moreover, they render long term illnesses, such as salmonella, E. coli and even smallpox.

A really good acting agent, however, are the so-called. Endo / ecto-drops that are applied to the skin and also have good efficacy against worms. After treatment with the proper preparation your pigeons are about 4-6 months free of parasites. Talk to us personally.

Treat your pigeons 3 times a year, by distributing each dove a drop directly to the skin – in March before the trip, in August after the trip and in December after the moult.
In the treated pigeons you will stay during the basket or at exhibitions as well skip no bugs. so stay free from it.

Make absolutely sure that your pigeons are please all year free of ectoparasites.
