Fly Wranglers - Application
Releasing Fly Wranglers (A.K.A. Fly Exterminators) is a simple process. We also offer subscriptions so you can stay on top of the pest fly lifecycle.
INTRODUCTION SITES
You may see large number of flies around your animals, but the fly breeding area is most likely to be close to manure areas or other moist, rotting organic matter. These are the areas to release your Fly Wranglers.
Top priority introduction sites include:
- Barns
- Stables
- Kennels
- Chicken Coops
- Feedlots
- Animal Straw Bedding
Other potential introduction sites include:
- Compost Piles
- Garbage Cans
- Septic Tanks
- Near Water Sources (but not directly in water)
Keep Fly Wranglers indoors, in original packaging, and out of direct sunlight. Monitor daily for first signs of movement. Hatching may take 7-14 days, depending on temperature, with the Fly Wranglers beginning to hatch at 70°F. Pupae do not change in appearance after hatching. For optimal results, release within 24 hours of hatching. Wait until temperatures are consistently over 50°F before releasing. Fly Wranglers will self-distribute up to 100 yards.
- Locate fly breeding sites. Please see introduction sites above.
- Sprinkle Fly Wranglers near fly breeding sites and lightly cover to protect from birds and rodents OR sprinkle Fly Wranglers into hatching release bag and hang above the ground, away from birds and rodents.
- Introduce Fly Wranglers at other possible breeding sites.
- Introduce monthly during warm months.
