  Hey guys I have a question for you!
  
  I have 2 buns(neutered) that are Semi-Free roam they have a bedroom to themselves with lots of tunnels to climb a couch and plenty o toys. At first they were great about using their litter box but in the past couple of month I have noticed they just don’t care to use it anymore they pellet bomb the couch and the carpet and where ever they please same with piddles. I have tried vinegar to get rid of the smell and a few other tricks but it just doesn’t seem to work! and trying to catch one of the little buggers in the act is almost impossible!
  
  Does anyone have anymore advice?
  
  I have also notice at bed time some people put their free roamers in the cage, would this help? also if i did this i would be concerned about their happiness since they have had their own room for 1.5yr ..
  
  Any advice would be great thanks!

  You could try containing them at night time only for a while to see if it helps fix the litter habits.
  I have a similar set up-2 rabbits happy in a room. I section the room off at night so they are contained to an area that has their litter tray etc. We tried leaving them out all the time, but found they would get messy and lose litter habits like you describe in yours. To be honest mine have never seemed to be less happy at being contained, but you could always just try it on a temporary basis, to see if it helps the problem?
