Fly Terminator FARNAM: an effective fly trap for stables and kennels

The Fly Terminator FARNAM is a mechanical insect control device designed to effectively reduce the presence of flying insects around stables, kennels, paddocks and livestock areas.

Thanks to its specific attractant, it lures flies from a distance and then traps them durably. It is an ideal complementary solution to insecticide sprays and cutaneous repellents used on animals.

Its chemical-insecticide-free operation allows for safe use in the environment of horses and dogs.

An ecological solution to reduce fly pressure around animals

The presence of flies can disturb animal comfort and degrade the sanitary conditions of facilities.

Naturally limiting flying insects around sensitive areas

The Fly Terminator acts:

• around stalls
• near manure areas
• around kennels
• in paddocks
• near feeding areas

By capturing adult flies, it helps gradually reduce their population.

An insecticide-free fly trap suited to livestock environments

Unlike classic chemical solutions, the Fly Terminator uses a food-based attractant solution.

A complementary alternative to classic insecticides

This system allows:

• targeted reduction of flying insects
• safe use around animals
• prolonged outdoor installation
• continuous day and night action

It fits perfectly into an overall insect management strategy in stables.

How the Fly Terminator FARNAM works

The principle of the trap relies on an attractant solution diluted in a container suspended near infested areas.

Effectiveness reinforced by progressive attraction

Operation is simple:

1. dilute the attractant solution in the container
2. hang the trap away from animals
3. leave it to act for several days
4. renew the solution if necessary

Captured insects reinforce the trap's attractiveness, which increases its effectiveness over time.

Where to install the Fly Terminator trap for optimal effectiveness

The trap's location plays an essential role in its performance.

Positioning the trap in strategic areas

It is recommended to install it:

• about 1.5 to 2 metres from the ground
• away from areas of direct animal passage
• near sources attracting flies
• around livestock buildings
• on the periphery of sensitive areas

Correct installation significantly improves results.

Long-lasting action over several weeks

Once activated, the Fly Terminator acts continuously.

Its effectiveness depends on:

• outdoor temperature
• the level of infestation
• the chosen location
• trap maintenance

Under good conditions of use, a refill remains active for several weeks.

The advantages of the Fly Terminator FARNAM

• Effective fly trap for stables and kennels
• Ecological solution without insecticide
• Safe for horses and dogs
• Continuous day and night action
• Simple and quick installation
• Progressive reduction of fly populations

Frequently asked questions about the Fly Terminator FARNAM

Is the Fly Terminator effective against all flies?

The Fly Terminator is particularly effective against house flies and stable flies, the main causes of discomfort in equine and canine environments. Its attractant allows the capture of a wide variety of flying insects present around livestock buildings.

How long does the effectiveness of a Fly Terminator last?

Depending on outdoor temperature and fly density, a trap can remain active for several weeks. It is advisable to regularly check the liquid level and renew the attractant solution if necessary to maintain optimal effectiveness.

Can the Fly Terminator be used in an enclosed building?

The Fly Terminator is primarily designed for outdoor use or in open buildings such as sheds or shelters. It is preferable to avoid installation in an enclosed space in order to limit odours linked to the attractant.

Where should a fly trap be placed in a stable?

The trap should be installed away from horses, ideally on the periphery of areas frequented by insects: near manure, around buildings or along the edge of a paddock. This positioning helps intercept flies before they reach the animals.
