Controlling The Fly Population On The Farm; THIS WORKS!
ฝัง

- The flies always get really bad when the monsoon hits. We have always cleaned our pens once a week and have fly traps in the hopes to keep the fly population down as much as possible. This year we learned there was a little insect called Fly Eliminators. We tried them after the flies were already really bad. In two weeks we saw an enormous improvement and are very pleased! They will be part of our farm from here on out.

Great tip on the Fly eliminators! Garden and does are looking very good, Cristal. Thank you!
At 7:16 a kid has a cat around neck like a towel 😂😂
Try lemon balm flowers which help to get rid of the Flies it's already used for in the house as well as outside throw sprigs around the barn to get rid of the Flies and also I forgot to mention it's a natural way of getting rid of flies as opposed to using pesticides
I have heard this!!
Where do you get them, is there a brand you recommended- springs? Are they dried?
Lemon balm isn't easy to grow in the middle of the dry desert. The bags and fly eliminators are not pesticides
What if the goats eat that flower
Excellent review. Thanks!
Thanks for sharing this important information listening from Bangs Texas thank you for the follow up
Spaulding Fly Predators, I’m on a monthly subscription during fly season, I’ve been using these for 4 years now and boy does it work!!!
Yes! We love them. Just got our second shipment of the year. We are staying ahead of it this year!
Are these soldier flies in the bag?
Can you do it for chickens or would they eat them?
Cost?

Your hair is so pretty!!!
Wow where did you get them how do I order them please we have a farm and it’s annoying to go out and enjoy our animals with soo many flys can’t feed them the just attack the food or even with water it’s nasty problem please let me now the name or where to buy thank you for your video awesome information
Does anyone know whether these are available in South Africa? We have an inconsiderate (and filthy) neighbour who doesn't clean out his chicken pens, and this makes everyone around miserable, because the flies are everywhere.
Where do you get fly eliminators?
How do you order these flies eliminators
i saw a guy put wide wraps of fly paper on a 5 gallon pail
The fly traps are bringing them in because they stink and attract them. We made the same mistake hanging them where the flys were bad. I found out you want to hang the fly catchers outside of the area you are wanting the flys gone and it will draw them away from the area you are wanting to rid them from.
Ewwww,wow there everywhere!!! Aww babies can you wash them ahh just was going to ask you if you spray anything on your goats are they going to SMELL TO????? How often do they come around??? Three weeks??? 900??? That is great I'm sure the goats hated those flies.what happens to the bugs after the flies are gone do they just die??? Gn
Good vid. Where can I buy Fly Eliminators.
Lemon balm sprigs
I have and I did not notice any difference. A few fly takes have a knock down.
I have a huge bundle in my chicken coop and it is covered in flies.
Fly traps attract flys, move them away from your pens!
Boy those fly traps smell like a gut wagon!😷
Bwahahaahahaha! For sure!!
Oops! I meant Gut Wagon 🤭🤣🤣
ever think of using chickens?
Chickens will go for the maggots, but not for the flies themselves

YES they eat every small insect anything that moves! Fleas ticks flies etc...
People claim this really works well:
I don't have livestock, but I'd surely try it.
In a spray bottle:
2 cups apple cider vinegar ---- not white vinegar.
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons dish liquid
2 cups water
20 drops cedar essential oil
20 drops lemongrass essential oil
20 drops citronella essential oil
20 drops tea tree essential oil
The dish liquid and the olive oil are needed for staying power. So it doesn't just evaporate off the animal quickly.
Make sure each oil is 100% whatever oil it's supposed to be, not mixed with anything else. I buy mine on Ebay.
Spray on livestock twice daily --- morning and late afternoon.
Gently tilt bottle back and forth before using each time to mix ingredients.
Happy spraying and good luck to all.
I've been doing this for 2 weeks. Seems to be working. First 3 days I sprayed the entire chicken coop and run every day, of course when the chickens are out, giving it enough time for it to dry before they come back in. Then after that around every 3rd day. I also spray the rear patio to keep them away from the house.
Oil can go rancid and essential oil irritates the skin so it’s not recommended by my vet

Vets usually recommend chemicals.
You need chickens!
Haha. That was our old place! We did have a lot of chickens a few months before that video but they never helped much. We have 10 1/2 acres now and we got chickens again!
Chickens work for just about everything else... but for flies, those little wasps (aka fly eliminaters (they don't sting!)), they work really well! Got introduced to them working on a horse farm and used them myself when I was raising animals.
