1. How to remove flies in the chicken house 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. 2. How to detoxify chickens after they have eaten maggots?Chickens do not have the ability to detoxify maggots. Chickens do not need to detoxify maggots because maggots do not contain poison at all. If they do, the maggots will be poisoned to death. Chickens will not eat maggots that have been poisoned to death. If chickens eat poisonous maggots, they will also be poisoned to death. This is secondary poisoning. Many cats will die of poisoning after eating mice that have died after being poisoned. 3. Are fly killers harmful to poultry?Fly killer is harmless to poultry (poultry will not be poisoned if they eat dead flies), but try to avoid direct contact with food, feed and drinking water. Fly killer is suitable for the prevention and control of flies, mosquitoes, cockroaches and other sanitary pests in various breeding places, including chicken pens, pig pens and other breeding pens, homes, hotels, schools, military camps, shops, toilets, restaurants, hospitals, food factories, garbage dumps and other places. 4. What fly-killing medicine can kill flies but will not kill poultry after eating it?Mosquito killer. If there are too many flies at home, you have to clean up the kitchen waste and dirt at home, and keep the house clean. Flies like the smell of rotting food and are easily attracted, so you have to get rid of it. Avoid using drugs in the kitchen. You can also use homekaas to deal with kitchen waste at home. After cleaning the kitchen waste at home, you also need to open windows for ventilation to let the smell out of the house and keep the air fresh. The flies will become fewer or even disappear. 5. What will happen if a bird eats flies killed by fly poison?Will cause poisoning. Fly medicine is generally some chemical medicine, which will have a fumigation and other killing effects on flies. Fly medicine contains certain toxicity. If you spray fly medicine in the room where birds live, it will cause harm to the birds. It is particularly important to note that the main food of birds is flies. If fly medicine is sprayed on flies or carried by flies, birds will easily cause poisoning after eating flies. Therefore, in places where there are few birds, try to use less fly medicine. |
