Are goulds safe if they bathe in h2o treated with s76?
I am using s76 as preventative for mites. I put it in the water as directed. My water bowls are feed cups and the birds can bathe in them. I was wondering if the s76 is safe if they decide to take a bath on the days I treat with the s76.

They should be fine.
I read on the product info that bathing in it will also kill any mites that are on the birds when they bathe.

Is that safe to be drunk? My birds all drink from their bathing pots.

Since they drink the medication, and you can apply it directly to their body, bathing in S76 treated water wouldn't be harmful at all.
Laraine from http://ladygouldian.com/ recently instructed me to apply some directly to the back of one of my bird's neck.
