I need more help with feathers, please

(1/4) > >>

dshull:
I had a bunch of turkey feathers, key word is HAD. They all look like something has been eatin on then, What did I do wrong,and has something beenmaking lunch out of my feathers

Pat B:
There is a mite(I believe)that eats feathers. I keep mine in the basement frig but you can use moth balls or cedar chips to help keep the bugs out.

Dave Dellinger:
I think wool clothes moths eat feathers too. I have my tiny stash kept in the freezer to kill any bug larvae and prevent any new ones.

Pappy:
I have had that happen several years ago.I think it is Mites.I now keep them sealed in an ammo box and fog it with permanon as I layer them in. Thats a bummer. >:(

TRACY:
Probably mites but could be mice also. Had it happen once but it was my black lab that was the culprit >:(
