The piggies now run around in their run and straight onto the wooden floor in the living room. Does anyone have any advice on cleaning up after them, as what we are using now is not cleaning up their wee very well.
 
maybe you could put a piece of lino or something similar in the run. you should be able to just wipe it clean then.
 
My pigs pee in the corner of the room so I put down a few pieces of kitchen roll there before I let them out - amazingly they pee on it - and then I just give that corner a wipe with a disposable floor wipe when I've put them back.
 
I use milton sterilising fluid to clean up after mine after they have been on the wooden floor!
 
We pop some newspaper down under the places we noticed they like to hide e.g. under chairs and footstools.

But for little accidents on wooden floors, I find some washing up liquid on a wet kitchen towel works great!

We've actually managed to 'toilet train' them (to some degree), my OH used to herd them back to their cage after 10mins or so, so they can 'do their business' and now they more or less do it automatically (unless they're busy pop corning and forget to go to the toilet!)
 
I put a bin liner down first then an old bed sheet. Seems to do the trick. Of course if they have free reign and aren't in a run this isn't much help!
