sparkysmum Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 So far I don't have a fly problem. Don't know if this is anything to do with it but the floor of my run is covered in wood chips & have hemcore in the poo tray. I wipe over the eglu with citronella & also hang a cloth soaked in citronella in the run. Might just be the cooler climate or luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 I use citronella too and find it quite effective. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
