I have 4 guineas and 6 chickens, all free range. I still have a ton of flies. :( Nothing seems to get rid of the horrid things.

I don't speak from experience, but supposedly Muscovy ducks are great fly eaters.

Muscovy deff eat lots of flies - Only if you free range them or have a very strict cleaning regime like cleaning down to bare floor each day as they are dirty birds in the barn :rolleyes: poop, paddle, eat, splash, poop, paddle, eat, splash, poop, paddle, eat - so they eat only a quarter of the flies produced from right under their own bed.
