I have my epsom salt ready to put in and go bath the birds, but I am not sure how much to put in per litre, per gallon...

Never really used it in the bath water ... However I have used it to Shock/ break my rollers down in prep for a comp... Havent really got the dosage down yet... But it kinda saved me on those short notice flys....good luck...

I have never try Epson salt but would like to know how it works. So is good to use in bath water and in drinking water?
I heard that after you warm them you should give them Epson Salt to flush everything out then again in a 10 more days. Is this true?

Quick I really dont know about the worming thing... however when I give it to omy kit birds in the drinking water they turn on ... I guess you can over do it as it dehydrates them but I have found it to be a nice safe streser for my kit's...

Ralph,Ralph,Ralph,never mind that chemical shit.Garlic in their drinking water once a month and epsom salts in the bath water is all you need to prevent lice and mites and probably worms too!

Pat,just regular garlic you buy in the green grocer,vegi section.I just take one clove of garlic(not the Whole bulb just a section of it)put it on the driveway and whack it with my mitt and throw it in the water fount every 2 weeks or so.
