Interesting as mine have leg mites, too and the vaseline
treatments have not really worked.

try baby oil on the legs & keep reapplying it at least
weekly. also clean the barn, especially around the perches &
spray with an oil based spray, concentrating on the undersides
of perches, & the walls around the perches (especially cracks)

Using White spirit before applying the oil on the legs is much more
effective - the white spirit gets up into the scales and gets the mites
the vaseline smothers anything that moves down the leg and helps to
recondition the scales
