I went to clean my duck coop this morning and saw it was infested with small flying, jumping black bugs. They were crawling around in the straw bedding. It has been pouring rain for a week straight so the straw in my run was super wet and dirty. The back of the run that turns into the fully enclosed coop was dry and had no bugs however. I cleaned out all the straw and pressure washed the whole coop. I'm still worried however. I can't identify the bugs. I don't think they're mites, I've also checked my ducks and they don't have any bugs on them. I ordered first saturday lime but I'm scared it's not enough to keep them from coming back. What can I do and are my ducks safe? Also, are the eggs still safe to eat?
