Apply the powder gently and avoid vigorous shaking. If significant dust is present, consider wearing a mask or applying in a well-ventilated area. Ensure the tub lid is properly sealed after use to prevent clumping due to humidity.

Ensure the powder is applied liberally and covers all areas of concern. Check that the application frequency is sufficient for your flock size and housing conditions. Consider increasing the amount used or applying more frequently, especially during wet periods or with larger flocks. Ensure adequate ventilation in the coop.

Apply gently and avoid spraying directly into the birds' faces or eyes. If applying directly to birds, do so quickly and calmly. Ensure the environment is otherwise stress-free.
