whilst i had sam and dominoa t teh vets fridya fro the myxi jabs, i asked the vet about fly strike.
i know pets at home do those big covers, but my hutch has a runa ttache dso it wouldnt really work, as teh flies would just enter trhough teh hutch.
anyway the vet suggested "rear guard"...i boughta bottle at £17, it lasts 10 week then you reapply. its like a "deodrant bottle" anmd you rub it from teh centre of teh back down, and under the tail etc.
it doesnt repel teh flies, but it destroys any maggots which may be laid.
just wondered if anyone else has tried it? or has any otehr tips for avoiding teh dreaded fly strike,.
i keep the hutch clena an ddry, but living near teh country you cant avoid teh insects and flies!
