Pests pose significant challenges for poultry farms, impacting animal health, productivity, and profitability. Common nuisances such as rodents, red mites and flies exploit the warm, food-rich environment of poultry housing, making pest control an essential part of farm management. At Lodi UK, we provide effective and tailored solutions to address these persistent problems.
Rodents: A danger to poultry health
Poultry farms provide ideal conditions for rodents, offering food, warmth and shelter, which means that rodent infestations are a lot more common than you think. Posing a serious issue on poultry farms, where abundant food, water, and shelter make them common invaders. Rat and mice infestations can cause substantial economic damage through feed contamination, structural damage, and disease transmission. Rodents not only spread dangerous diseases like Salmonella and Avian Flu but also contaminate far more feed than they consume. They gnaw on electrical wiring, posing fire hazards, and even prey on eggs and young chicks.
At Lodi UK we understand the importance of protecting your poultry and your pocket. As the No.1 supplier of professional use rodenticides, we are dedicated to helping support British agriculture and UK Farmers with responsible, effective and trusted rodent control solutions for every farm.
Our Lodi’s Gem’s Range offers a premium selection of amateur and professional rodenticides to tackle those rodent problems head on.

The CRRU Code promotes responsible use of rodenticides and Best Practice outlines how rodenticides are to be used to minimise exposure to wildlife.
Red Mites: The silent saboteurs
Red Mites are a persistent pest for poultry farms. Feeding on birds’ blood, they cause anemia, skin irritation, weight loss, and reduced egg production. These nocturnal pests hide in cracks, feed on birds at night and spread diseases. Their rapid reproduction and ability to survive up to 8 months without a blood meal, makes them difficult to eradicate. Studies show that red mite infestations can lead to up to a 20% drop in egg production, further underlining the importance of control.
Lodi UK offers a comprehensive range of Red Mite solutions to tackle infestations at every level. Organ-X Red Mite Spray delivers a 100% mortality rate within 30 minutes of contact.
