Diatom - Long lasting residual control of Red Mite 2kg

  • Use in conjunction with Poultry Shield to give maximum control
  • Prepared from the fossilised remains of ancient shelled creatures and so is totally inert - and safe to humans and animals
  • Red mites hide during daylight hours, emerging at night to find their hosts
  • They multiply rapidly - each adult mite will lay upto 100 eggs per day
  • Seven days after being laid, each egg can become an egg laying adult!
  • They are protected by a waxy outer shell. It is this shell that Diatom breaks down
  • Begin treatment before signs of mite are seen - once visible to the naked eye the problem is much harder to control
  • Scatter a handful of diatom around the perch and nesting area - at a rate of 50gms per square metre
  • Repeat once or twice per week depending on level of infestation
New lower application rate of 10g/m²

Biolink

Biolink Limited was formed in 2007 to sell agricultural disinfectants and cleaners into the agricultural industry. The business expanded on the back of innovative new products backed up by on-farm service and advice. Early in 2011, the company purchased a manufacturing business in Northamptonshire to enable total quality control. This has supported expansion and provision of toll manufacturing services together with product formulation services to other businesses.

Growth has also come from understanding the importance customers place on having uniform products for the supply chain and the critical role that biosecurity plays within this. To this end Biolink pioneered the “Platinum Programme” which is tailored to individual farms across the agricultural industry, in particular for pullet rearing, layers, broilers, ducks, turkeys, pheasant rearing, plus swine and equine. Working closely with individual customers, this targeted and encompassed approach ensures that the best possible economic return to the farm is achieved.

In 2014 Biolink set up a strategic partnership with Theseo to join its business activities and expand the combined businesses both in Europe and globally. The two companies have consolidated distribution and marketing services to strengthen its position worldwide. The new partnership manufactures and markets a complete and innovative range of biosecurity products and services, ranging from disinfectants and detergents to water sanitising products and vitamins/supplements.
