    It's warming up here in Phoenix and I'm getting a lot of flies around the quail. The coop is relatively clean but you know, the poop stinks, thus the flies. I bought a disposable fly trap and it's working great so far. My question is, can I keep adding water to it for awhile? It says to replace it after 30 days or whenever it runs dry. In our area it will probably dry out in a week. Can I keep adding water until it gets to be 30 days old or gets full?

    Yes, just don't let it get completely dry first.
