The couple drops of tea tree and Neem where in the whole batch of oil we made. There was about 1 cup of coconut oil, 1/2 cup olive oil, then the drops of tea tree/Neem added. I could have wrote that more clearly.
Thank you all for your helpful input! I put a few drops of olive oil (prior to your replies) in each ear and she stoped scratching for a day. Today she is scratching and shaking again. So I used what I have, a mixture of coconut, olive oils and a little tea tree. I hope it wasn't too much! If this doesn't work, I will try the Ivermectin. She's my best breeder!
I tried natural with our doe multiple times after she came from the breeder with mites. The breeder had also treated her the day of pickup with a natural product without telling me until we had met for pickup. Been fighting the mites ever since. Never had them here prior. I will no longer go natural and just use ivermectin with mites. It's safe and effective and I most likely wouldn't still be fighting them with her had I treated her with it right away. Granted her case was pretty bad when she came here and yours probably isn't. I will add that I should have done 3 doses in her case and months later they came back after appearing to be gone. I'm doing another round of treatment on her of 3 doses just to be sure. Along with cleaning and diatomaceous earth in her bedding trays until I'm sure they are gone for good.
