Flybuster is an innovative, eco-friendly fly baiting system that provides livestock enterprises with a cost-effective solution to manage fly populations and build a ‘fly barrier’ around dairies, feedlots, sheds and stables.
Flybuster is a pesticide free, highly effective, easy-to-use bait system that attracts and traps flies. Safe to use in many agricultural contexts to help reduce the spread of diseases, and aggravation that comes from flies.
The one-way trap bucket allows flies to enter but not escape. When water is added, the bait emits a smell, and provides a warm, moist environment to attract flies. The bait is rich in proteins to encourage flies to lay eggs inside the trap, thus breaking the fly reproduction cycle.

How it works
· The bait attracts flies, drawing them away from livestock due to its strong smell and ample food (protein) source.
· Flies enter the trap, lay eggs and drown.
· The traps form a barrier to keep flies away from livestock.
· Once full, the fly trap contents can be emptied into compost or green-waste piles.
Each trap has a capacity of three million flies, making it perfect for agricultural areas with major fly infestations. The Flybuster system provides a long-term solution for significant fly reduction. It is cost effective, requires little maintenance and is safe to handle.
