Question
how do u keep your house from smelling from the guinea pigs i only have two but they smell!

Answer
Liz --

The answer to that question is simple ... clean, clean, clean.  If you have two guinea pigs you should be cleaning their cage out about every other day or so.  If what you're smelling is that ammonia smell, this should take care of the problem.  Every time you smell that smell, it's time to stop and clean the cages, so to speak.  If the smell is an unusual odor, you would have to describe it for me so I can tell you how to eliminate it.

Hope this information is helpful.  If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact me.  Good luck!
