Iverlux
Anyone ever used it mixed in water for flock treatment? Bottle states how to mix but doesn't say how long to give it.
thanks

I haven't used it myself (I use Scatt) but the directions are:
DIRECTIONS FOR USE:
For individual birds, apply one drop of IVERLUX to the skin of the neck each day for five days, OR add ½ teaspoon of IVERLUX to one quart of clean drinking water for two consecutive days. Repeat for three weeks in a row.

I actually have the same question.

So it would be 2 days Iverlux water, 5 days normal water x 3 weeks?

My bottle also has no indication of how long to use... Strange.

You would only do two dwys and then wait a week because killing all mites at once can cause the bird to suphocate woth all the mites inside. I think the drop on the neck is the best way to go.

I think it has more to do with the life cycle of the mite and potency of the drug.
