We are devising something similar but with escape holes at the bottom so that maggots crawl out and fall into containers underneath we dehydrate these and save them for the chicken-birds for winter feed supply! They likes em!

i have shown this video to several farmers, and have one farmer that I work with that has made 4 of them and they work great!

Awesome information. I just moved to the beach and the flies are insane. I've been experimenting with various methods to eradicate them. I Will be setting up a system like yours. God bless for the video

Thank you for posting

great idea

Great idea

grate idea i dont live on a farm ,but i noticed in the summer the flies hang around my garbage cans,would that be a ok place for the barrel trap!

Thank you for the nice video. How do you secure the pvc to the holes in the barrel?

good stuff

THX....MAN....WIIL DO....

NICE!!

Any measure of how much this reduces fly impact on your livestock, in buildings, and to neighbors? Nice concept

He meant that he had to reset the bait to start the cycle again as it is spring. In other words, we had winter and the bait and odor from last summer/fall has dissipated, and it is time to recharge the system.

أفضل فكرة رأيتها إلى الآن. ولكن ماهي المكونات التي بالداخل. بالتفصيل لو سمحت

Fresh cow poop and dead rats are most excellent attractants. I would also add 2 more elbows on each intake pipes

The trap is nicely designed for some flies, but I question whether face flies and horn flies would enter this trap because these flies only lay eggs on fresh manure. Horn flies in particular do not like to enter shaded places. I'm not sure about stable flies as they prefer decomposing vegetation and manure. Other filth flies with a more generalist habit such as house flies may find this barrel worth a visit.

أقصد المكونات التي بداخل البرميل التي تجذب الذباب. شكراً جزيلاً

Tell your neighbors! :-)

If parasitic wasps don't work for you This should like the next best thing. In TX flies can get pretty bad.

What type of flies are you killing? Horse flies? Deer flies? Black flies? Common house flies? Biting flies?

eventually there is not enough liquid to trap the flies do to the large amount of floating flies...

Feed chickens with those pounds of dead/dying/baby flies?

HaHa!, I have a friend named Kevin Jahnke in Central Point Oregon.

Let the birds do the work.

sound is terrible
