Healthy Pen protects against parasites and flies and helps eliminate stinky barn odors. No matter how much we want them to be, coops and barns are rarely pest-free. Even the cleanest coop can be home to mites, lice, flies, mosquitoes, and fleas.
Natural enzymes and oils in this product attack parasites at all stages of life and repel flies, mosquitoes, and other bugs! In addition, the enzymes break the chain of NH3 (ammonia) and NH4 (ammonium acetate) into N - nitrogen, thereby neutralizing poopy odors.
Fleas, mites, and lice like to live in the cracks, crevices, and bedding of your coop and run. These nocturnal pests may be hard to spot because they only come out at night to feed on the adult and baby birds. Flies and mosquitoes are easier to see, but they are a constant nuisance. Flying insects are an additional threat because they can carry viruses that can affect the health of your flock. Healthy Pen helps eliminate both pests for a safer, healthier flock!
Healthy Pen also improves air quality by breaking down the ammonia in poultry waste. Ammonia (NH3) and ammonium (NH4+) are extremely harmful to the respiratory systems of birds, but the enzymes in Healthy Pen help break them down into harmless nitrogen levels via natural processes. This process neutralizes the odors and helps create a healthier environment for your hens.
