Bleach isn't doing anything to dirt, it only disenfects clean...if you wash a surface with soap and water, then bleach it, it will disinfect the surface. Dry is the only thing that kills cocci, worms, bacteria etc in the soil. I filled the barns with shavings, then took off the top layer every weekend, until at about 4 weeks we were hitting dirt, I then filled it again, by 8 weeks the kids were out of the kid barn and moved to the woods pen, new clean pen that had yearlings in it the fall before. That and the prevention in goatkeeping 101 kept the cocci and worm burdens in my kids so low that I never treated. Building excellent immunity is the only way to 'treat' in the south.

Allan I had a literal mote dug on the north side of my barn...the grade increased on the north side of my barn up to a small hill, everything ran down hill, add the roof draining and it would flood my barn. I hand dug a mote all down the north side so it would drain around the barn, worked wonderful! Goat folks are ingenious!
