Preen Queen is a dust bath additive to help remove excess oil from your chickens’ bodies. It contains zeolite (a drying agent), diatomaceous earth, peppermint and citronella essential oils. All of these ingredients work together to keep pests such as lice, mites or other harmful bugs away from your sweet pets.

Bugs hate the smell of peppermint and citronella. This deters them from even getting near your flocks. Preen Queen is a great addition to your chicken product cupboard! It comes in a 5 lb. container and includes an easy-to-use scoop to sprinkle all around your dust bath areas. It can be used indoors or outside in your chickens’ favorite dust hole.

What are some benefits of citronella essential oil? Citronella oil repels mosquitoes, gnats, flies, lice and mites. Need I say more? All of these icky pests can wreak havoc on a chicken. They can create problems in your coop and your flock. What an easy fix! Incorporate this essential oil into your care regimen.

What are some benefits of peppermint essential oil? Peppermint is good for chickens’ respiratory systems, keeps rodents, flies, and other pests away and is a great cleaning agent for your coop.

Next time you’d like to incorporate either of these essential oils into your chickens’ dust bath, simply sprinkle some Preen Queen in their dust bath areas. Strong Animals Chicken Essentials has safely incorporated organic essential oils into its products so you can be sure your flock is getting the correct amount! Too much or not enough is never a good thing. You can be assured that using these products is completely safe for your flock. I have been using them for almost 5 years and have never had a healthier flock of chickens!

Until next time,
