Does anyone else have this problem? i recycle my chooks poo into my organic waste bin but its attracting an awful lot of flies, is there anything i could do?

Thanks

Chuck the poo on the compost?

 

Then again I'm having compost problems. One has Ants whose Bite is very painful ... I am covered. And the other has small flies.

Put the poo in the compost bin and them cover it with a layer of earth.

Put it in paper bags or wrap it in newspaper?

Doesn't that bokashi bran help it break down faster too?

[calinz]

Thanks so much! great ideas, yes should have thought to put in paper and cover with compost - will do both! and must get some bokashi (dont know if i've spelt that right!!) and garlic to add to their food.

 

so excited about getting my fence up tomorrow, my little chooks can free range from tomorrow, in their own bit of garden that they can do what they want with!! OH was bit dis-chuffed when they took a liking to his precious bamboo's!
