cemetary Posted February 18, 2020 Report Share Posted February 18, 2020 What's the thoughts on using creosote in the hut on several things. If you use it, what you doing with it, floor, boxes, beer mats etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyleakin Lofts Posted February 18, 2020 Report Share Posted February 18, 2020 I use it on my floors and bottom of nestboxes, but I also use grills. Once it is dry I sprinkle some woodchip on the floors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roland Posted February 19, 2020 Report Share Posted February 19, 2020 Brilliant. Give it two weeks or so to dry … else birds will be marked. New a very good farmer, who had his loft in one of his fields. He was a very, very good fancier. Every two years he gave a couple of labourers, I believe, A week-end chore of cleansing his lofts to the bone. Droppings went on gardens etc. Then the lofts were splashed and every crank and nookie filled with Creosote. Left a while to dry out and then birds put back to breed before racing. Never had any ailments etc. Birds always a picture to look at, and results were top notch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
