What are the breeding techniques for fly maggots?

Killing flies has always been a task that farm managers have been working hard on. If you are not careful, these annoying little buzzing creatures will multiply rapidly and come back again. If it is not a fully enclosed farm, it is almost unrealistic to exterminate flies in the farm. You can only kill them as much as possible and reduce their existence. Next, let's talk about the experience of "fighting" against flies in recent years. In the "fighting" against flies, you must remember several key points.

1. Killing fly eggs is the key.

As the saying goes, "to cut the grass, you must remove the root." To eliminate flies, you must start by killing the fly eggs. Only by killing the fly eggs can you prevent a large-scale outbreak of flies. Usually, the most effective way to kill fly eggs in farms is to add cyromazine-type fly killer drugs, also known as fly killer, to the feed. In this way, the fly eggs in the feces discharged by the animals cannot survive. You can also sprinkle cyromazine-type fly killer powder on fresh feces where flies are concentrated. In this way, the flies will die after they surround it and inhale the powder.

2. Environmental sanitation is the key.

Flies are pests with a particularly sensitive sense of smell. They can smell odors thousands of meters away. It's funny and magical to say that flies have such a sensitive sense of smell, but flies don't have a "nose". What do they rely on to smell? It turns out that the "nose" of flies - olfactory receptors are distributed on a pair of antennae on the head. Each "nose" has only one "nostril" that communicates with the outside world, containing hundreds of olfactory nerve cells. If there is a smell entering the "nostril", these nerves immediately convert the odor stimulation into nerve electrical impulses and send them to the brain. The brain can distinguish substances with different odors based on the differences in nerve electrical impulses generated by different odor substances. Therefore, the antennae of flies are like a sensitive gas analyzer. If the environmental sanitation is good, there is no food smell that flies need, or there is no such strong smell, flies will naturally fly in other directions. Therefore, as the person in charge of the farm, it is better to put environmental governance and sanitation cleaning in the key position to arrange and deal with it.

3. Proper protective isolation is the key.

The flies inside are eliminated and the sanitation is cleaned every day, but the farm is a farm after all. It is impossible to have no smell and residue at all, because the breeding facilities of most of our farms are not advanced to that level. Therefore, as a farm with conditions, it is key to isolate it from the outside world and try to isolate the flies outside our sheds. How to isolate? Install protective measures such as screens and mesh on the doors and windows of the shed. Some people may ask, I raise geese or free-range chickens, the site is so large, how to install mesh? That's right, according to @我与我小农庄's observation, there are fewer flies in places with larger free-range sites. This may be caused by the scattered excrement of animals raised in the scattered sites. In a situation like this, just do a good job of enclosing the mesh in the concentrated habitat area.

4. Regular disinfection is the key.

As a highly effective and low-toxic insecticide, cypermethrin can effectively and quickly kill flies, fleas, maggots and other pests. It has a certain preventive effect on the killing of infectious virus media in farms. @My Small Farm uses it twice a month in the peak breeding season of parasites and flies in the pig farm, but in the goose farm it is only used on the ceiling and surrounding areas of the shed. There is no practice of disinfecting the farm site, so I want to explain it specifically.

To sum up, flies, as carriers of diseases, have always been a major concern for people. In order to eliminate flies in farms and reduce the occurrence of breeding disasters, you might as well try the four key practices of @Me and My Small Farm, which will definitely produce good results.
