Supporting Your Chickens Beyond Remedies
In addition to using RM Blend CH, here are steps to help your chickens recover from red mites:

Clean the Hen House: Regularly clean and disinfect the coop to eliminate mites and their eggs. Pay special attention to nooks and crannies where mites may hide.
-
Maintain the Nesting Box: Replace bedding frequently and ensure the nesting boxes are kept dry and free from infestations.
-
Optimize the Environment: Depending on temperature, mites can reproduce rapidly, so monitor your coop's conditions and maintain proper ventilation.
-
Inspect for Signs: Look for bright red tiny red bugs or mite infestations on coop surfaces and your chickens.
-
Support Overall Health: Offer a balanced diet, clean water, and mite-repelling dust baths with diatomaceous earth to promote a robust immune system.
-
Spray the House: Use a safe, mite-specific spray to target affected areas and prevent reinfestation.
Combining these practices with RM Blend CH helps your chickens stay healthy and thriving through every stage of their life cycle.

How to use
All Agripathics remedies come in liquid form, as we have found this to be the easiest way to administer them.
You can dose a chicken or bird individually or at the flock level.
Individually:
Homeopathic remedies are best administered onto a mucus membrane, so directly into the mouth, otherwise into food or water..
Flock Level:
This is best done by adding one capful or dropperful to their water trough, so that each time they drink, they receive a dose.

Ingredients
Homoeopathic ingredients:
Red mite nosode, Sulphur
Base Composition
Formulated in a liquid base of human‑grade undenatured ethanol (10%) and purified water.
About Our Ethanol Base
Our remedies are preserved using human‑grade undenatured ethanol, selected for its purity and suitability across species. The gentle 10% concentration supports product stability while remaining appropriate for routine use with companion animals, birds, horses, and livestock.
Ethanol and Animal Administration
Each dose contains only a minimal amount of ethanol. Most animals tolerate this well, and remedies may be administered orally, added to feed or water, or applied topically depending on species and context.
For animals with known sensitivity - or when cautious administration is preferred - the following approaches may be used:
-
Dispense drops into feed and allow to stand for 20 minutes before offering
-
Dilute in a small volume of warm water and allow to stand for 20 minutes prior to administration
These methods allow partial ethanol evaporation while preserving the integrity of the active ingredients.
Ingredient Philosophy
We select ingredients with a focus on purity, safety, and functional integrity. Our undenatured ethanol base reflects this commitment - clean, balanced, and suitable for diverse species, from household companions to performance and production animals.
FAQ's
Is ethanol safe for animals? Yes. Our remedies use a very small amount of human‑grade undenatured ethanol (10%), which is widely accepted as safe for routine use across species.
Why is ethanol used in the remedies? Ethanol acts as a gentle preservative, helping maintain stability and potency over time. It also supports the integrity of homeopathic preparations.
Can sensitive animals still take the remedy? Absolutely. For animals with known sensitivity, drops can be added to feed or diluted in warm water and allowed to stand for 20 minutes. This allows partial evaporation while keeping the remedy effective.
Will my animal taste the ethanol? Most animals show no reaction at all. When added to food or water, the taste is minimal to undetectable.
