How Does This Trap Help Combat House Flies?

Our House Fly Trap provides a highly effective solution to House Fly infestations in outdoor settings. The trap is supplied with a specially formulated attractant powder which has been proven to entice a range of common House Fly pests into the trap including:

  • Bluebottle flies
  • Greenbottle flies
  • Muscid flies
  • Calliphorid flies

The trap is robust, effective and works rapidly in killing large numbers of House Fly pest infestations. The trap is entirely non-toxic.

How Do I Set Up The Trap?

Our House Fly Trap is easy to install. The attractant powder simply needs mixing with 500-800ml of lukewarm water in the bag of the trap (up to the fill line). Then attach the black lid to the top of the trap, and hang the trap from your desired location.

Full instructions are provided on delivery.

Where Should I Place The Trap?

Hang your traps from any outdoor location that appears suitable. Ideally situate your trap close to where they have been frequent sightings of House Fly populations.

When Should I Apply The Trap?

You should ensure your House Fly Traps are established from May when House Flies will start appearing in larger numbers. House Flies will be most active in high populations from August to September. 

How Many Traps Do I Need?

We recommend having 1-3 traps set up in your garden from May. For larger, or smaller, gardens this will vary. In peak House Fly season from August-September more traps may be required. 

When Will I Need To Replace My Trap?

The attractant will remain alluring to flies over a 4-8 week period. After such time the trap will need replacing. The trap is disposable. Liquid and dead flies can be poured into a compost heap or rubbish bin.

Very effective fly trap

Having attempted a home made trap (not successful) I purchased a couple of these. Only put one together and it has been incredibly effective in reducing flies in our London garden. The only minor downside is the rather revolting bag of dead flies to dispose of!

Massive reduction

Placed about 10m from outdoor kitchen / dining on boundary fence. 90% reduction in flies in kitchen and living room. A real solution for us, as adjoining livestock field.

Fly Trap

There is no doubt the trap is effective, but what they don't tell you is that it attracts every fly within a one mile radius. Within two days there was a two inch layer of rotting flys floating on top of the liquid and within four days the whole mess was alive with white maggots. The whole thing stank so bad I could smell it everywhere in the garden, and we have quite a big garden. Eventually we could stand the smell and look of it no longer and we took it down.
Definitely effective, but it looks and smells disgusting. Sorry, but this is the truth of using it.

Started working straight away!

Not quite what I expected when I opened the powder but within minutes of setting up it began to work so I wished I had got it earlier to combat the flys which are a nuisance.
