Another embodiment is a method for treating the manure with a material to reduce the pH of the manure, preferably to a pH less than 5. A related embodiment is a method for treating the manure with an acid to reduce the number of flies in the area around the manure, preferably to less than 25% of the number of flies in the same area without the treatment. Another embodiment is a method for treating the manure with a material to reduce the ammonia level in the air above the manure to less than about 2 parts per million.
