Since getting chickens, there are more flies in my yard. The hens free range all over the yard, so it's not like there's one concentrated area of chicken poop, so what should I do about the flies?

How does fermenting feed help with flies? Also how do you ferment feed?I used to do "poop patrol" ... Walk my back yard with a long handle tong, picking up poop. Couple years ago Hubby made the Chicken House (8 x 12 x 7), limits the amount of chickens I keep (4 - 6, living in a residential area) and the girls stay confined. Read about fermenting feed and poop board, have had no issues with flies and no more "poop patrol" Agree with oldhenlikesdogs, Fly Tape cause Fly Traps really smell.
