They're little tiny wasps (that don't sting humans) that seek out flies and lay their eggs in them thus killing them. I think that's how it works, lol. All I know is that we saw a HUGE difference when we started getting them. Spalding Labs has them.
Title: Re: Remedies for flies Post by: Amokabs on May 14, 2013, 08:44:15 pm Ultrashield works, but u can buy 10% permethrin and mix your own up alot cheaper. 1 0z to a gallon is what i use. Also started the fly predators and i aint seeing any fly's. but it has been a COOL spring with weekly cold snaps here in central Alabama, so we'll re-evaluate once it warms up for good. Also ENDURE spray by Farnham works about like ultrashield .
Title: Re: Remedies for flies Post by: charles on May 15, 2013, 07:26:49 am Ultra shield, ear tags or 10% permethian (2:1 ratio). 1 of my dogs had flies on his ears bad, got to where his ears were bleedin. Sprayed ultra shield 3wks ago and they havent been back. I use permethian to spray the outside of the houses and ground, gotta do it every 3-4wks or when i notice the flies gettn bad,
