Zappers are great like Kaz said. I have used bran in the nest boxes and also pine shavings. I prefer pine shavings but had to settle for bran as my orignal supply has gone. As luck (or not) would have the day I buy 5kg of bran I go to check out a new show and guess what I find? Pressed blocks of pine shavings. Oh well won't take long to use the bran up. you can always eat it rip Link to comment
