Bug season is here again Mosquitoes and buffalo gnats and flies are here again These pesky things can and will kill entire flocks And transfer diseasessuch as fowlpox and many other diseases It is a good idea to have some bug lights and fly traps and also some fly sticky tape to try to help keep down as many as possible watch for the gnats very closely during the warm wet spring they will clog up the nostrils of the birds and also clog up their throat as they are trying to breathe spray down your house and roost with something that suits your preference remember to dump any standing water out of cans buckets even old tires use lime to help keep down the smells and also under any coops to help on fly control thanks to james(APC) for the info
