ALMITE® – Natural Red Mite Control Solutions for Poultry Farms and Animal Welfare
ALMITE® is a specialised product line developed to provide effective red mite control in commercial poultry production. Designed specifically to combat Dermanyssus gallinae, ALMITE® helps poultry producers protect flock health, improve animal welfare and maintain optimal production performance.
Commonly known as the Red Mite, Dermanyssus gallinae is one of the most significant ectoparasites affecting laying hens worldwide. In Europe alone, infestations are estimated to cost the egg industry more than €130 million every year, reducing productivity, compromising bird welfare and increasing management costs.
Although primarily associated with poultry, the Red Mite can also infest ornamental birds, companion animals, other farm animals and, in some cases, humans, making effective prevention and control essential for modern poultry operations.
