These harmless predators target fly breeding sites, parasitizing various fly species during their pupae stage. They do not sting, bite, or swarm, and are completely safe for humans and animals. Fly Exterminators are nocturnal and are rarely seen during the day.
Reduction in fly population should be noticeable approximately 3 weeks after hatching.

Our Fly Exterminators are predator to 95% of flies, including house flies, lesser house flies, horse flies, filth flies, bot files, biting stable flies, and various other fly species.
Less complete on the false stable fly, face fly, flesh fly, and horn fly because these species complete their life cycle widely dispersed in pasture.

CONSUMER INFORMATION:
RELEASE SITES:
You may see large numbers 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 Exterminators.
Top priority release sites include barns, stables, kennels, chicken coops, on feedlots, and animal straw bedding.
Other potential fly breeding sites include compost piles, garbage cans, septic tanks, and near water sources (but not directly in water).
RELEASE FREQUENCY:
Release monthly during warm months. Heavy infestations may require additional releases.
HOW TO RELEASE FLY EXTERMINATORS:
Release at first sign of flies.
Store Fly Exterminators indoors, in original packaging, and away from direct sunlight. Monitor regularly for signs of movement. Hatching can take 7-14 days at 70°F. Pupae do not change in appearance after hatching. For optimal results, release within 24 hours of hatching. Temperatures bust be consistently over 50°F before releasing. Fly Exterminators will self-distribute up to 100 yards.
FLY EXTERMINATORS RELEASE RATES:
Small Animals (chickens, ducks, rabbits):
100 Fly Exterminators per animal
Medium Animals (goats, sheep dogs, cats):
500 Fly Exterminators per animal
Large Animals (horses, cows, pigs):
1,000 Fly Exterminators per animal
HATCHING RELEASE BAGS:
Every order includes Hatching Release Bag(s) to keep Fly Exterminators safely out of reach from birds and rodents.
STORAGE:
If absolutely necessary, unhatched pupae can be cold stored at 34-45°F for no longer than 5 days - this may reduce viability. After hatching, adults can be stored at room temperature, out of direct sunlight, for no longer than 3 days. For optimal results, release within 24 hours of hatching.
