Redtop Fly Traps 

Listed as one of eight featured innovations to poultry farmers in June’s Poultry World Magazine, The Redtop Fly Trap is an exceptional product that is designed to remove millions of flies before they enter housing. With the weather getting warmer, these traps are a key means of controlling flies on poultry sites. 

How does it work? Flies are attracted to the bait which sits inside the red-topped, plastic trap. The bait is activated by a combination of water and sunlight and stimulates the female to lay eggs. Each trap attracts up to 20,000 flies, producing 150 eggs per lay.  Tried and tested to work and environmentally friendly, the trap should be hung outside about 10 metres from the housing that needs protecting. It also needs to be positioned out of the wind and at a sunlit site to activate the bait.
