Fly Spray advice?

The rabbits are hiding inside their wendy house as it's tipping it down :(. I cleaned them out earlier but noticed a few flies hanging around which I'd much prefer weren't there.

Obviously I wouldn't go spraying stuff around with the rabbits present, but are there any particular sprays that could be harmful to them? Or the opposite, any rabbit safe bug sprays? Or any other methods of getting rid of them?

Any hints, tips or tricks would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
The OH.
 
You could try sitcky strips as they work. I use horse fly replient (not directly on buns though) and spray the playhouse roof and run covers, works a treat at keeping flys away. I've also planted lots of lavender around my bunnies run too as this keeps flys away and smells lovely and they can eat it too!

To be honest, the best way is just to keep cleaning bunnies out as often as you can and make sure their bums are clean and dry : ))
