I don't have chickens, but I came across this recipe from Patti's Place on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/pattisdoterraplace) and thought I would share. Hope you all can use it!

For those who may not be familiar, EO is short for Essential Oil.

Chicken Coop Spray:

24 oz. water
20 drops Peppermint EO
20 drops Lavender EO
20 drops Melaleuca EO
1 c. Dawn dish detergent

Combine in a spray bottle and use to keep the coop cleaner and the flock healthier.

My family & I are new to keeping chickens. We cleaned the coop with vinegar water the first time. I've used eo's for decades & look forward to trying this formula. TY for posting :)

Take a deep breath, it'll be OK.
