Hi melody, thanks for letting me know what you do.I use only food grade DE puffed in coop/ run everywhere every 1-2 weeks when do big clean before new bedding is put down and so far no pests. I use poultry protector first then the DE. Food grade is safe in case of ingestion when they peck the floors. My girls are out playing in the yard when I clean and therefore not back till done to avoid any irritation to the respiratory system. They do fine. If you don’t let the birds out just work on opposite sides. Do coop when they are in run. Do run when they are in coop.
I do their boxes when they are in their run eating breakfast, their run when they are out and about.
Favourite area when elsewhere
Cheers, Sue.
