Chicken Dust in my Basement. Help!!

[MomtoSyd&Emma]

Ahhh I feel your pain, I have TEN chicks in our basement right now they are 7 or 8 weeks old now, and one of the cockerels is already CROWING in the basement lol Our rafters have webs of dust hanging from them, this is the same basement that you could literally eat off the floors of before the chicks moved in! lol

I am just SO thankful that the chicks were DH's idea and NOT mine lol as he is a clean freak and cant fuss at me about them because HE picked them out and insisted on them lol

I have 12 chicks in my bathroom and they are quite dusty also. I dust and vac every time i change the bedding, every 3 -4 days.

Yeah - I'm stumped too! My basement isn't finished. Just your standard poured concrete floors and walls. They've been down there since May 7 and I've changed the shavings twice. When I watch them, I can see a cloud of dust hanging in the air under the heat lamp when they run around in there. The floors should be easy - vacuum and wipe with water and a cloth. It's all the little things in the basement that have a thin layer of dust that's going to take time to clean!
