HOMER49 Posted July 22, 2007 Report Posted July 22, 2007 Hi Cant beat the loft floor grills clean twice a YEAR If I was building a new loft it would be 8ft inside 6ft for walking on and 2ft below the grills Cheers Homer 49
doos r us Posted July 22, 2007 Report Posted July 22, 2007 we use loft white most days/liome mix 1/2 times a week it burns worm/cocci eggs out saves on worm/cocci treatments got to be garden lime as the best is irish lime thats hard to get now i used sharp sand lime mix as a deep litter but as sammy says when dry to much dust but lime is a great bug kiiier so u have to get balence right for your loft

THE FIFER Posted July 23, 2007 Report Posted July 23, 2007 your quite right sammy , but funnily enough for the humans ,, not the birds ,, the pigeons are well prepared by nature for it to harm them too much , their nostrils are differant to ours alltogether , but as said b4 on the forum its wise for any fancier to wear a mask [which i dont, but should ;D;D] [hope thats not you in a mask at the side ;D ;D ;D] most of the dust and particles u see comes from the birds and the loft and the same in lofts without floorwhite,
