Tips for Trapping Flies

Trap More FliesThe system will generally attract flies from a distance of 30-40 feet, depending on wind conditions.

Baited system will last a long time. Effectiveness is not diminished with time.  Bait will attract a broad range of species, including house and blowflies.

Bait is completely non-toxic and made of dehydrated food-grade products.

Add water to the trap if the solution gets below the fill line.   Water is needed to drown the trapped flies.

Flies like heat, light, low wind. Place traps in sunny areas.   If in an enclosed area such as a barn, place traps within 6 feet of an electrical light.

Flies search low for food sources.  Traps are most effective when placed 24 inches or less from ground level.

Flies remain dormant until their body temperature reaches approximately 65 degrees F.  Do not expect much activity below this temperature.

Traps are re-usable.  Once filled with flies, dump contents, re-bait, add water and do it again!  Replacements baits are available.

Bait is also reusable for a period of time.  Remove dead flies from liquid bait and add enough water to return liquid bait level to fill line.  Replace bait when you notice a marked decrease in the number of flies in the trap.

Flies remain dormant until their body temperature reaches approximately 65 degrees F.
