CATDOLL : CATDOLL: How to eliminate flies in chicken farms (How to eliminate flies in chicken farms)

1. How to eliminate flies in farms?

It is almost impossible to eliminate all flies from the farm.

It can only eliminate flies quickly and reduce fly density permanently.

I have a cousin who runs a farm that raises pigs, chickens, and ducks. Let me tell you how my cousin kills flies quickly and reduces the density of flies permanently.

In fact, most of these problems are caused by the farm's own improper disposal of livestock and poultry manure. If you only use fly medicine, it will have a little effect, but it will not cure the symptoms.

1. Find out where farm flies come from

In fact, the main source of farm flies is their own feces, because farm animal feces provide a breeding ground for flies. Flies can only live for 20 days. Even if you don't kill them, they will die. So why do they keep appearing? It's because flies lay eggs on the manure piles on your farm, and these eggs hatch and become maggots (check the manure piles to see if there are maggots, that's for sure). Maggots turn into pupae in about 7 days, and pupae turn into flies in about 3 days.

That is, once a fly dies or is close to dying, a new batch of flies will come out. Moreover, because female flies lay hundreds of eggs every day, they reproduce very quickly. Since the development time of eggs, maggots, and pupae is short, when the temperature is suitable for the season, it will cause more and more flies on the farm.

2. How to reduce the number of flies

First of all, the manure piles stored on our own farms should be handled scientifically.

The simple method is to clean up fresh livestock and poultry manure in time, ferment it with high-temperature microbial livestock and poultry manure fermentation agent, and cover it with a film to prevent flies from laying eggs in time and do not provide an environment for maggots to survive and develop. After the manure pile is sealed tightly, flies cannot find a place to lay eggs, which will produce two results: one is that flies have to fly to other places to find eggs; the other is that without maggots, there will be no flies. After 20 days, the flies will die and there will be no new ones, so the number of flies will become less and less.

At the same time, microbial fermentation is carried out in centralized and closed manure piles, and highly effective fly-repellent products are used.

The above is the most environmentally friendly treatment method, and the effect is remarkable. My cousin did it this way. In a few days, we will see the effect of "eradicating the roots". Of course, foreign flies will still come because there are breeding grounds for flies and maggots in surrounding farms or other environments, but the number will be much less than in the past.

I hope my method can help you.

2. How to eliminate flies in the farm? What should we do if there are too many flies in the farm?

Summer is a season with high temperature and high humidity, which is the most prosperous season for all kinds of mosquitoes and flies. Mosquitoes and flies not only spread various diseases, but also affect the normal feeding and rest of animals, which is extremely detrimental to their healthy growth. Therefore, fly prevention and control are particularly important in summer breeding. So, how to deal with the large number of flies in the pig farm?

First, use mosquito and fly prevention equipment.

For example, door curtains and window screens can be installed on the doors and windows of the pens to prevent flies and insects from visiting. At the same time, fly-killing lamps can be installed to kill mosquitoes, which can greatly reduce the number of flies in the pens.

Second, maintain good hygiene and carry out disinfection.

As the saying goes, "flies don't bite seamless eggs." They like feces, rotten and moldy things, and they like to drill into wherever there are. Therefore, timely cleaning and disinfection of feces in the pens and fields is also an effective way to reduce the breeding of flies.

Third, adjust the diet formula

Reduce the protein content in the diet. Since flies are particularly sensitive to protein, we can appropriately reduce the protein content in the feed in summer.

Fourth, use fly-killing drugs

Safe and low-toxic fly killers can be used to spray pig houses to effectively kill flies. At the same time, using appropriate drugs to pile and ferment feces can effectively kill fly eggs in feces, thereby reducing the breeding of flies.

3. What should I do if there are a large number of flies inside and outside the chicken coop?

There are many flies in the chicken house in summer, which is a big problem affecting the hygiene of the chicken farm.

4. How to remove flies in the chicken coop without affecting the chickens’ food intake?

The problem of mosquitoes and flies in the chicken house is a common problem with a certain seasonality. There are more flies in the summer, and although there are also flies in the winter, they are relatively rare. However, when there are too many flies, it will have a great impact on the overall growth of the chickens.

Mosquito and fly damage:

Flies can spread various diseases, such as E. coli, Pasteurella, etc. Especially after chickens become sick, flies will accelerate the development of the disease.

Even when the chickens are healthy, dense swarms of flies constantly biting the chickens' eyes and other places will make them irritated and affect their feed intake.

If there are mosquitoes, the most direct manifestation is the harm of fowl pox, which will affect the appearance and sales price of chickens.

Common fly control solutions in the market:

There are two main types of fly killers that are relatively cheap and popular among farmers on the market:

1 Cyromazine.

Adding cyromazine to feed directly blocks the development of fly larvae and fundamentally reduces fly breeding. However, cyromazine is quite harmful to humans and may cause fetal malformations.

It is now banned in the market, and even if it is used, it is only used by a small number of people. It is recommended not to deliberately add this type of drug.

2. Attractants.

This type of drug is more popular among farmers in the market. You can see the effect of killing flies, and dense flies die. However, this type of drug has a fatal disadvantage: the more you use it, the more flies you will get.

I encountered a similar situation in a farmer's chicken coop. In the spring, there were not many flies. However, there were particularly many flies in the chicken coop of one farmer. When I asked the reason, it turned out that they used a fly-killing drug that could attract and kill flies.

This type of drug will attract flies from the surrounding areas into the chicken coop, resulting in more and more flies being killed, and if not killed, the flies will become excessive, forming a vicious cycle.

For both methods, it is not recommended for farmers to use. It is normal to have flies in the chicken house. If the number is not large, you don’t need to use medication. If you need to control it, you can control it from two aspects: management and rational use of medication:

1. Seal the chicken house.

Many chicken coops nowadays are relatively simple, so this is difficult to achieve, but it is necessary to consider adding screens at vents and other locations to reduce the number of flies that directly enter the chicken coop.

2. Clean the chicken coop.

The feces in the chicken house needs to be cleaned regularly to reduce the breeding of fly larvae.

3. Drug control.

Spraying drugs such as cypermethrin on the walls, aisles and other places in the chicken coop, where chickens do not move, can inhibit the survival of flies to a certain extent.

5. How to eliminate too many flies in the brooder house?

There are too many flies in the chicken coop. How to eliminate them? You can put a fly trap. Because there are chicks, you can't use pesticides.
