The fungi infest the surface of the cuticle and penetrate into it, smothering the mites. Self-dusting by birds is a natural defense against mites (and lice) and can be aided by poultry farmers providing diatomaceous earth (also known as kaolin). [49] The harsh dust of the diatomaceous earth abrades the cuticle of the mites, dehydrating them ...
