Odour Control in Chicken House - Hilux - 12-17-2014

Hello all, how do you reduce the smell from a chicken house?
Does it smell a lot?


RE: Odour Control in Chicken House - Manihot - 12-20-2014

Keep it dry and it won't smell much. You can do that by ensuring that there is good airflow through the building. If possible install fans if ventilation is poor.

Yes, keep it dry, but it can be difficult in the rainy seasons. Fans will help and also ensure that litter (wood shavings) depth is about 5cm.

Use larvacide, 50g to 50kg

I thought larvacide is for flies.
