What works best is to get you some used motor oil and a paint brush, paint the used motor oil on the chickens roost post, paint each chickens legs with used oil also....clean coop floor and put DE (Diatomaceous Earth) on coop floor, this should take care of it.....very seldom does a person ever have to do a second coat of oil, put it on generously  |

VetRX for chickens, good for others things too. Change out the roost ,put new ones in and
put oil on the roost ends.

Permethrin garden dust works wonders both on the birds and in their housing. Just make sure you wear a mask.

Any type of oil will work.
Used motor oil is highly toxic though, while clean vegetable oil is not.
That and the Permethrin dust will usually take care of the mite problems.
