Laura007 Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 I had some really good spray for getting rid of red mite and for the life if me i cant remember the brand, can anyone help? Rather cunningly the empty bottle has been thrown away! It was 500ml and a concentrate, it smells if lavender when its made up. The bottle was white plastic. Can anyone help?

Beantree Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 Sounds like Nettex Total Mite Kill Laura007, but I thought the pink spray was ready to use directly? Strangely if you buy the large 2L concentrate bottle it is clear'ish and is then mixed at 10% strength with water I think; it's been years since we used it.

The Dogmother Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 That's it - the ready to use spray is coloured to remind you that you need to shake it before use. The concentrate (much cheaper way to buy) is just white, but will still settle and need shaking. As Beantree has said, this needs to be diluted 1:10 with water. The separation is due to a slightly waxy coating element which keeps the active ingredient (permethrin) on the surface of the coop so that it can carry on killing mites. Use it in conjunction with their Buz Buster Louse powder - same active ingredient and together they really get rid of and keep mites away.
