How do you help your piggies beat the heat?

We've been having a few days of high temps and since such days are rare here we don't have air con.

I have set up a fan in their room (not blowing on them, just to move the air) and given them damp wash cloths to lay on. I have also started wetting down all their veggies for more water consumption.

Do you have any more ideas?

I read a couple of ideas on her a few days ago. Freeze a water bottle and wrap it in a towel for them to lay by, wet a brick and put it in the cage, and of course lots and lots of water. I hope the hot spell passes soon.
