    It is now time to clean the coop out, We are wondering what we can spray on th walls to disinfect and clean where they pooed on the walls from the roost and on the floors before we put the new bedding in. Thanks

    White vinegar & water
    Bleach & water
    Oxine AH and water
    Tea tree oil and water

    scrub brush and/or paint scraper works well

    Do it first thing in the morning on a warm day and open it up so that the sun can hit it. If you can remove roosts and nest boxes to clean, let them sun dry. Make sure it is COMPLETELY dry before putting any bedding back in.
