Product Information

I have found it more effective to have a couple in use in different locations for the biggest reduction in flies.

Because you want to attract the flies AWAY from their breeding grounds and away from where they are causing you a nuisance! Also, if you hang it too close to an existing strong manure smell, the flies don’t notice the Redtop. Simple and aesthetic in design, this bug zapper is a breeze to set up. You can hang it using the included chain-and-hook set, or simply set it on a hard, even surface, as long as an outlet is nearby. We also found the upkeep to be easy as well, with a removable plastic tray at the bottom that is dishwasher-safe. We appreciatethe ease of use and the self-cleaning electric grid. One thing to note is that this zapper is loud and very bright so if you are using it indoors, you will want to put it in an area you can avoid.

You don’t think you’ve got that many? you’ll be surprised! In a suburban garden without a fly problem, the trap may last well in excess of 12 weeks. In fact, this year’s trap may still be working next year. However, in a farm environment, we’ve known them to fill in about 3 days! It all depends on the scale of the problem!

NO! The Redtop is an OUTDOOR trap – the smell which attracts the flies would soon be overwhelming indoors – and all those flies would be pouring into your kitchen to find it! One satisfied customer had previously been emptying his electric blue light UV trap in his kitchen of 300 flies every day. After he hung his Redtop outside, he hadn’t had to empty the UV trap in the kitchen for three weeks! The trap is capable of catching 20’000 flies and by the end of the season, and as you can see to the right, there is quite a build up of flies in the bottom of the bag. At the end of the season, you simply take the bag down and put the trap in the rubbish bin. How to use the Red Top fly trap A couple of years ago, I decided to try to control the numbers but didn’t fancy spraying anything nasty around the place. It’s against my principles of having an organic garden and I rarely use strong chemicals even for cleaning the birds coops out, opting for the environmentally friendly poultry shield instead. A unique and safe product, Red Top Fly Traps are the ultimate fly trap. They are low-cost, non-toxic, simple to use and chemical-free. The Victor Fly Magnet is a tidy container that uses bait to lure flies under its tented lid and into the depths of its glass chamber. The flies drown in the jar, which can hold dozens of winged insects. The scent of this compact outdoor fly trap also repels stinging insects such as bees and wasps.First, open up the bag and place the attractant that is in the sachet into the bottom of the bag, adding the prescribed litre of warm water with it. Around 85% of the flies caught in the trap are female. By controlling the female, the entire fly population in the area can be brought under control. In the bottom of the bag, there is a mixture of –well I’m not sure what it is, but it smells pretty horrible to me but certainly attracts the flies. I couldn’t smell the trap unless putting my nose to the top of it though. Eventually, the fly will crawl into or fall into the mixture.

Next working day delivery is not available for the Scottish Highlands and some remote areas where an additional charge may apply.Bait is especially appealing to female flies - so reducing the next generation. Simply hang the fly trap away from the area you wish to protect. Low cost, foolproof, disposable. Add the bait and one litre of lukewarm water (if water is milky, allow to stand for 24 hours before use). The Red Top Fly Trap works in a very simple way. Essentially, it is a plastic bag with a plastic top that has a ‘one way entrance’ or gap that allow flies to crawl in, attracted by the smell and not be able to find their way out again.

There is a small piece of mesh in a funnel shape that guides the fly downwards into the bag. Once a fly is inside the bag, it can fly around but is unable to find the small opening in the mesh that it came in through. The traps attract flies so ensure you place them away from your home. They do smell once they get going so I have found it convenient to place them a few meters up into trees where you’re less likely to get a waft of one when walking by. In the unusual event where delivery is repeatedly refused or no effort is made to accept delivery, we reserve the right to pass delivery and return courier costs to the customer. require no electricity and, at less than 1p per 100 flies, are an economical solution to your fly problem.The bait has a strong fermented food smell, which might make it better suited away from outdoor dining areas. This article was written by Amanda Rose Newton, a freelance writer and garden reviewer for The Spruce. As an entomologist, she delighted in personally testing out the products to provide advice to those with different needs, homes, and price points when it comes to pest control. T he Red Top Fly Trap was something I discovered a couple of years ago and now buy half a dozen of these every year to control the number of flies around the garden and my poultry pens and houses that are spread across an acre of land. Slit the bag with a sharp instrument and drain it into a compost heap or a hole in a garden bed (dead flies are rich in nutrients and make good compost), or place the trap in an old shopping bag and dispose of in a rubbish bin.
