I'm ready to roof my run and am using glass-fibre corrugated sheets. I have to work in an 'L' shaped section that will fit under the existing roof section and am not sure if it will be better in one piece or two. My rough sketch hopefully shows what I'm on about. Cutting in one-piece will...

Quick question. What do you users of Aubiose or similar use to treat the flooring against bugs and stuff. My girls are constantly rummaging around and pecking in it so it needs to be obviously safe stuff to use. Thanks
