Does anyone have an idea for a solution when your run is on a slight slope? Gravel won't stay put. Right now we have carpet in one end with the house and bed and dirt in the other. I spray with a clorox disinfectant but that doesn't really help the carpet area. That doesn't generally get too soiled but it still needs cleaning I think. I am thinking of putting wood planking that has a board across one end to level it. Any ideas gratefully received.
