freddie Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 Stops vermin of the tiny size!! I thought I'd give it a go, making sure it was pure woodash, and put one woodburner tray full with sawdust to make a 3" deep covering in a 6x4' shed, and they love it!! Comments, please!!

Leeloo Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 I have heard that about woodash! It is an old-fashioned remedy for mites and lice and some people swear by it. I have a hen who seems prone to lice. I dusted her with carbaryl and she started looking better, but now it looks like they might be returning. I'll have to build a fire in the firepit and try it out if we ever get a mild evening! I put diatomaceous earth in their run and that doesn't seem to have helped her, although there do seem to be fewer slugs getting into their food!
