That was an excellent idea Mark I nicked a load of plastic tubs from work and did exactly that - now just spend my time filling those up instead lol
Good news is that quarantine this side seems to be going fine, I've become less paranoid and now only do the bottom checks twice a day instead of every 15 minutes.
All is looking good, the hammies will move (fingers crossed) back into their own abode on Friday just in time for my OH to return home on Saturday to relative cleanliness and lack of cages cluttering up every single room which would drive him insane
