Boy we have had the monsoon rain here in kitsap county,, everything is saturated soggy— my chicken run over hang is starting to smell — I scoop it everyday- i have turned it but things are just to wet..
So I am looking at ways to cut the ammonia smell before it gets toxic—

There are a number of ways to lower levels of ammonia in the coop, starting with cleaning stalls and run-ins on a regular basis (no matter how cold your fingers may be!). The liberal application of chicken coop bedding, such as Koop Clean, in the coop and nesting boxes effectively eliminates ammonia. Sweet PDZ, the active ingredient in Koop Clean, is made from zeolites and effectively neutralizes the ammonia gases. In addition to these measures, keeping the coop well ventilated will also aid in your chickens’ respiratory health (but make sure that they do not catch a chill!).
