    I've tried a few dust bath products and this is hands down the best. My girls started rolling in it within minutes of me putting it out. Their feathers are noticeably softer and I haven't seen a single mite since switching to True Roost.

    We have 8 hens and I was topping up their bath area with regular dirt every few days. This stuff lasts so much longer and the difference in feather quality is real. No more oily-looking feathers. Absolutely worth it.

    Good product. The powder is very fine so it does create a bit of a dust cloud when the girls are really going at it but that's kind of the point right? Feathers look healthier and I'm seeing less scratching.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Everything you need to know about True Roost Dust Bath

    01 What is True Roost made from and is it safe for my chickens?

    True Roost is made with six natural powders: neem, lemongrass, garlic, cinnamon, turmeric, and peppermint. It contains no harsh chemicals, artificial additives, or unnecessary fillers, and is designed to support your flock’s natural dust bathing routine when used as directed.

    02 How do I set up the dust bath?

    Sprinkle the powder into your flock’s existing dust bath, or mix it with dry soil, sand, wood ash, or your preferred dust bath base. Place it in a dry, sheltered area of the coop or run, then top up weekly or replace after heavy rain, soiling, or strong odour build-up.

    03 How long does one bag last?

    It depends on the size of your flock and how often they use their dust bath. For a small backyard flock, one bag can last several weeks with regular top-ups. Larger flocks may need more frequent refills, especially if the dust bath is used daily.

    04 Will this help with mites and lice?

    True Roost is designed to support your flock’s natural dust bathing routine and help keep the bath area cleaner, fresher, and less inviting for unwanted pests. Regular use can support an ongoing mite and lice control routine without harsh chemical treatments.

    05 Is it safe for chicks and bantams?

    True Roost is made with natural powdered botanicals and is suitable for backyard poultry when used as directed. For very young chicks, sensitive birds, or birds with existing health concerns, introduce gradually and check with a poultry vet if unsure.

    06 Does it help with coop odour?

    Yes. The natural botanical blend helps support a fresher-smelling dust bath area and cleaner coop environment. You can also sprinkle a light layer into bedding between clean-outs for extra freshness.

    07 How long does delivery take?

    Orders are prepared quickly and sent with tracked delivery. Please allow 3–5 business days for delivery. You’ll receive a tracking number by email once your order has been dispatched.

    08 Can I use this alongside other treatments?

    Yes. True Roost can be used as part of your flock’s regular hygiene routine alongside other preventative measures. If your chickens already have a severe mite or lice issue, follow veterinary advice and use True Roost as ongoing dust bath support.
