They are indoor guinea pigs on fleece liners.Are they indoor or outdoor guinea pigs?
Thank you. What should I look for during checks? I tried to search for the info, but all I got was a bunch of grisly maggot photosYou do not need to use these kinds of sprays (not even for outdoor pigs).
The best thing is to keep the cage clean and check bottoms at least twice a day in hot weather.
It’s only the bottle type flies which pose a risk.

Are the "small red bumps" under the fur or in bald patches? How far along the body must I check?
Also, is checking twice a day absolutely necessary? Especially since the guide says fly strike doesn't happen that often? (I hardly ever handle my girls.)
Just curious, why don't you recommend the fly spray?
Questions, questions. Thank you for your time.
