Generally poultry are not affected too much by ticks, the birds actually will eat the ticks when they find them. However if you have a bird that has ticks you can bathe it in a good organic pet shampoo mean to remove external pests.

Damminix Tick Tubes are a great method of defense in protecting your property from deer ticks that carry diseases such as Lyme, Ehrlichiosis & Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever. When placed in mouse habitats like wood piles, stone walls, etc. - mice take the permethrin cotton back to their nests. This does not harm mice or birds, but kills ticks at the larval stage before they have a chance to infect humans & pets!
