Hello
iam really very new to chickens, this is my first summer with my fine feathered friends...
i would really use some advice on fly control.
right now my two (soon to be five) girls have one area about 10X10 feet and access to a side yard about 15X40. the smaller area has alot of flies and the larger area is starting to get bad too
the smaller area *had* a nice shade tree, until the overenthusiastic gardeners cut it all the way back grrrr
i desperately need something that i can put (spray) in that area to keep the flies down. i currently have the rescue fly traps there, but that just not cutting it.
they eat and scratch in this area and it borders my neighbors yard. My area isn't technically able to have the girls but my neighbors don't mind, as long as it doesn't become a nuisance... see my problem?
help!?!?
Paula
