Hey, this is a really common issue with certain yeast strains. Just be sure to clean out your airlock so that the bugs don't come flocking. besides that, keeping a clean airlock will ensure your juice ferments properly. I find that bentonite helps significantly with preventing this, but like I said, certain yeast strains produce more violent fermentations than others. hope that helps!
