Biological Fly Control

Fly parasites been spread on farm
Spreading Biowasps on farm in areas where fly breeding takes  place.

Nantwich Farm Vets   stock Biowasp biological fly control, this is a clever, chemical free, method of fly control.

The Biowasps are applied on farm in areas where fly breeding takes place, such as muck heaps, straw yards and areas where slurry can pool. After release the Biowasp hatches, the female wasps then search for fly pupae to lay  their eggs inside. The  egg then hatches into a Biowasp larvae that develops inside the fly pupae, this prevents the fly itself developing. and another Biowasp emerges from the pupae rather than an adult fly.

Our March 2023 Newsletter features and article from Becky about Biological Fly control.

For best results Biowasp should be reapplied every two weeks during the fly season. To get the best result you should start using Biowasp at the start of the fly season, before the fly population becomes well established.

Fly pupae containing Biowasps
Biowasps are supplied in sealed bags of parasitised fly pupae which hatch out on farm after spreading
