Alternative control of poultry pest

Published: September 6, 2017
By: Luis Alves
I am professor at Western Paraná State University (Unioeste, Cascavel, PR, Brazil). I would like to talk about alternative control of the lesser meal worm and the poultry red mite, mainly with biocontrol agents and mineral dusts.

I just know that there is a French company has a product of natural predators which can eat the red mite inside the farms. I can not tell you more respecting the non-commercial comment on this site.

What about spiders. If the population of spiders high in poultry houses the amount of mites decreases. do you observe anything about this subject?
