i just hang up those fly paper strips.no much you can do to get rid of them all but it helps keep them down.horrible f*****g things.went out this morning and the rabbit carcass from last nite was buzzing with them.

same as me the hanging strips,feed just enough meat and dry mix in the morn and again last thing at night,try not to leave any meat in the court during the day,check the bed box as the buggers like to hide it all over,espcially as they dont eat as much at the mo,with it being so warm,keep the court cleaned out every day,spray down with disinfectant,at the toilet area,daily,not a lot else you can do,bstd flies,ok,ian

i hate these bloody flies

 

i've been cleaning their toilet areas twice daily, feeding their meat in the late evening just before it gets dark and cleaning any left overs out in the morning, feeding their beaten egg during the day whilest supervised, removing dishes afterwards, will be popping some dry food into the pregnant jills too so she can store some food to snack on between her egg and meat,,

 

fly strips are a good idea, anyone got any others
