Hi all.
Well, a while back, I had a problem w/ a fruit fly infestation in the bunny room. Now, since I've been going in and out of the house more frequently being summer, there were 4 small looking black flies (not fruit, more like house). I immediately checked bunny butts and cages. There were no other flies to be found and I had just cleaned with litter boxes early Friday morning. I'll be cleaning their boxes again today just in case.
I couldn't find the source of the flies in the room. So, I concluded the flies migrated to the bunny room because (1) there door was closed and it can get a little stinky (2) there have been more flies outside because of summer and they are finding their way in.
Today, I plan on disinfecting the room really well because I don't want the bunnies to get sick as well as giving the bunnies a good once over with a good comb to check for anything bad.
But, what I really want to know is, what can I use on a reg. basis to keep flies from coming into the room? Is there an air freshener smell they hate? Are there fly traps I could buy?
Thanks!
