Effective Protection Against Mites and Parasites
Keep your parrots and pet birds comfortable, healthy, and free from irritating pests with Johnson's Anti-Mite Extra Mite Treatment. This ready-to-use 100ml pump spray has been specially formulated to tackle some of the most common external parasites affecting cage birds and pigeons, including red mite, northern mite, lice, and other unwanted infestations.
- Fast-Acting Formula: Targets mites, lice, and parasites quickly for immediate relief.
- Long Lasting Protection: Contains permethrin to help prevent re-infestation.
- Ready to Use Spray: Easy pump application with no mixing required.
- Suitable for Birds and Cages: Safe for direct use on birds and their environment when used correctly.
Johnson's Anti-Mite Extra is a water based spray that offers a practical and reliable solution for bird owners dealing with parasite problems. Infestations such as red mite can cause significant discomfort, stress, and even health complications if left untreated. This treatment works by eliminating these parasites effectively while providing ongoing protection to reduce the risk of them returning.
The inclusion of permethrin ensures that the formula not only deals with active infestations but also helps to break the cycle of re-infestation. This makes it an ideal choice for maintaining a clean, hygienic environment for your birds, whether you keep parrots, budgies, or pigeons.
Application is simple and designed with ease of use in mind. The convenient pump spray allows for controlled and even distribution. For best results, shake the bottle well before use and remove all food and water from the cage area before spraying. Birds should be sprayed lightly from the rear at a distance of approximately 30cm, taking care to avoid the eyes and beak.
Dosage depends on the size of your bird. Small birds typically require 1 to 2 pumps, while larger birds may need 3 to 5 pumps per treatment. This flexibility ensures that each bird receives the appropriate level of coverage without over-application.
To fully tackle infestations and prevent future outbreaks, it is recommended to repeat the treatment weekly or as needed until the issue is resolved. In addition to treating the birds themselves, spraying the cage, including cracks, crevices, and hard to reach areas, is essential. These are common hiding and breeding spots for mites and other parasites.
This product is classified as a veterinary medicine and is marketed in accordance with Schedule 6 of the Veterinary Medicines Regulations, covering exemptions for small pet animals. This ensures it meets the necessary standards for safe and effective use when directions are followed correctly.
Important Safety Information
While this product is safe for use with birds when applied as directed, it is extremely poisonous to cats. It is essential that cats do not come into contact with the spray, treated birds, or treated surfaces until fully dry, as exposure can be fatal.
Johnson's Anti-Mite Extra offers peace of mind for bird owners who want a straightforward, effective way to protect their pets from parasites. With consistent use and proper cage hygiene, you can help ensure your birds stay comfortable, stress free, and in excellent condition.
