moochoo Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 Diatom is probably one of the most effective to use in combination with Poultry Shield in a wooden house. Diatom is made up of crushed algae which have sharp edges. These pierce the mite and dehydrate it. It is more expensive but well worth the purchase.
