Clean and Disinfect pens	When the rain stops, it's like a party cleanup, but for your pigpen. Clean it, disinfect it, and don't let the mess linger. A tidy pen is a healthy pigpen.
Maintain pen hygiene	germs love a good rainy day too. Sweep your pen clean daily to keep the little nasties at bay. A clean pen means less stress for your pigs.
Improve Ventilation	Let the breeze in! Good air circulation keeps the heat out and the germs down. Cool and fresh air means happier pigs.
Prevent feed spoilage	Rainy weather can make your feed go moldy faster than you can say "yuck!" Keep your feed in a dry, cool spot, away from the rain and rodents. Your pigs will thank you!
Strengthen Disease Control	Rainy weather can bring diseases that'll make your pigs sniffling and sneezing. Stay on top of vaccinations and keep an eye out for any signs of illness.
