Help/Advice needed please

I posted this under another title elsewhere but I can’t find any way to edit the thread, so apologies for the double posting.

We bought a hog house a few weeks ago, as we were encouraging hogs into the garden for food. I’ve lifted the lid carefully today and found one asleep, so I very quietly and carefully replaced the lid straight away. I did notice as I looked however that there is hog poop in the entrance, on the wall, and further in. It didn’t look new and might have started to get mouldy.

Is this an issue? Should I be watching for hoggy to leave so I can clean it, or might it cause more harm than good if it comes back and it smells all wrong, or something? The LAST thing I want to do is upset any hogs, particularly if any are looking at making a nest for having babies.

Thanks in advance for any advice. I’m thrilled to bits that we have hogs coming in for noms and fresh water nightly. I badly want to do right by these little guys.
