*The vast majority of VIRUS germs do not survive in the environment outside it's carrier host(s) for more than 72 hours MAX!! Most virus survive outside the host only a few MINUTES. This illness IS A VIRUS--Yes???? (Bacterial or Fungal infections are a different story.) >>>ED: DROPPINGS are a problem, esp. IN LARGE QUANTITIES b/c they are WARM, FEED VIRUS WITH THE CARBOS IN THEM AND ESPECIALLY BECAUSE THEY ARE **WET**!! DRYING them in the SUN and SPEEDING DRYING TIME w/ clay kitty litter, OR D.E., etc. ESP. BEFORE ADDING IT TO THE COMPOST HEAP OR PUTTING IT IN THE TRASH AND THE VIRUS DIES THERE. Drying the SOIL out and speeding heating & drying time with BREATABLE BLACK GARDEN FABRIC DOWN & **WITHOUT** THE BIRDS IN CONTACT WHILE IT DRYS helps kill the virus there.
