Cardboard Playpens?

[gus+walter]

Hi guys, I'm pretty new to the forum and hoping I've put this is the right place...
I have two boars who love to run around, finding little hidey holes they shouldn't be in (even when I block them off) and find things to chew (house plants, wires...again after blocking them off they find a way to them) and like to keep their hooman running around, scared to leave them for even a few minutes.
I have a massive cardboard box that I've cut in two and made a little bridge so they can run from one to the other.
Is this ok to do? Do other people do this?
I've found sweeping the poos up to be much easier and have been rubbing lime on (dried) pee spots and lightly spraying the bottom with pet safe disinfectant once they're done and back in their house.
Thanks in advance

guinea pigs love cardboard boxes! i've made tunnels out of them, much to the pigs' delight! however, i am concerned about the use of lime. i'm not 100% sure how safe it is. you might want to check into that.

Thanks!
I figured that people seem to use lemon/lime juice on white spots when using fleece bedding, so I thought it would be ok? I do it once they're out just before disinfectant.
I wont put them back in the box until the next days adventures
