The Ultimate Bedding Solution for Australian Chicken Coops for Odour and Pest Control

Updated: Oct 8

Maintaining a chicken coop that is clean, dry, and free from odours and pests is a major concern for both commercial poultry farmers and backyard chicken keepers. The choice of chicken coop bedding plays a crucial role in ensuring flock health, hygienic conditions, and reduced maintenance effort. While there are many bedding brands available in Australia, ChickenKoop™ CleanUp stands out as a complete, all-in-one solution that addresses the common challenges of poultry care.

Chicken farmers often face several recurring issues

  • Accumulation of wet and smelly bedding, leading to ammonia build-up

  • Infestation by mites, lice, and flies

  • Frequent bedding replacement, increasing labour and material costs

  • Health concerns for chickens, including respiratory problems and foot issues

Many conventional bedding materials like straw, wood shavings, hemp, and sand offer some relief, but none fully address all the challenges. Problems like limited absorbency, poor odour control, and susceptibility to pests are common.


What is ChickenKoop™ CleanUp?

ChickenKoop™ CleanUp is a premium, Australian-made bedding product formulated from a blend of attapulgite clay and diatomaceous earth (DE). It is designed to tackle the typical problems of chicken coops while providing additional benefits:

  • Exceptional Moisture Absorption – The attapulgite clay captures and locks in moisture, keeping bedding dry longer than traditional materials

  • Odour Neutralisation – Diatomaceous earth naturally adsorbs ammonia, keeping the coop smelling fresh

  • Natural Pest Deterrent – Helps prevent infestations of mites, lice, and other common pests without the use of chemicals

  • Durable & Cost-Effective – Lasts longer, reducing the need for frequent bedding changes and lowering overall costs

  • Safe and Comfortable – Provides a soft, hygienic surface that promotes healthy, stress-free chickens
