Eglu Go With 2m Run For Sale

[Duckmomma]

Hi

I have just had email asking who told me about fli trap

SO am I putting Michelle or egg lou forward ?

[Duckmomma]

I have put Louise forward, so maybe if any one else gets asked they could put Michelle forward?

[BeckyBoo]

I'm so glad we're not the only ones, OH and I were sat on the patio earlier commenting on how many flies there were. We were worried it was the compost heap, or the chooks, but hopefully it's a phenomena of the weather and once they're all hatched they'll disappear again. It's done wonders for our local bat population tho - dusk is VERY busy above our house

Oh I love to watch the bats at this time of year

You have just reminded me that a large park not so far away does bat walks through the park in the evenings, they use all the sonar equptment and everything so you can hear them, must book it now

[Egg Lou]

Thank you Duckmomma!

 

Wouldn't it be nice to think we will have an impact on the fly population with all our new flitraps.. think orders may have been rather high this weekend but perhaps not enough to make a dent just yet

 

...although perhaps if I can persuade everyone near my house to get one...

[Duckmomma]

Now the real trick would be to convince all the neighbours to use them,

in which case you wouldnt need to buy any, cos all the flies will be homing in on next door and getting dessicated before they even consider visiting you

[Egg Lou]

Now why didn't I think of that!!

 

The amount I have spent of fly prevention this week is ridiculous! horses fly repelent, fly rugs, flitraps for chickens ( I haven't even got yet) and flitraps for horses (that I can't ride due to shoulder injury)..

 

phew.. now there was I looking forward to the warmer weather

Hi, I've just been asked who put me forward, any suggestions as to who is next on the list for a freebie?

Sharon

[Duckmomma]

Hi

I think it might be Michelle

I am not sure they are still doing it, I just put Lou forward and they e.mailed me and asked me to thank her for them

Carol

[SharonX]

Well if Michelle wants to PM me with her details I am happy to pass her details on for her freebie.

is duck momma the next on the list?? i just got my email asking how i heard.

[Duckmomma]

Hi Hunni

I think it's either myself or Michelle

[kaylis1980]

i think sharon nominated michelle.

[debbieroach]

I ordered a 2 traps today after reading your posting. I told them about you too. I have not noticed more flies since I got my 4 hens last November, but I thought best to get ready for when I do sit out in the garden and I also don't want my neighbours complaining!

[kaylis1980]

Hi Hunni

I think it's either myself or Michelle

 

did they email you or anything?

[redfrock]

So if I put one of these in my garden - which I fully intend to, will all the flies from the neighbours gardens also get attracted by it? Or don't they have any and it is just me because of the dried chicken poo in the garden ? The thing is I never have a single fly in my either my walk-in chicken or rabbit runs, just every where else. I've been blaming it on the footpath down the side of the garden and some of the dog walkers not clearing up after themselves, but am now not so sure. And I really don't want to see swarms of flies from other gardens bee-lining my flitrap..... it will resemble something from a horror film!

[Roxanne]

Having received my flitraps I commented to the manufacturer that the instructions were not very clear on the packaging, so he has produced a new leaflet to go with the product according to my comments/questions.

At least now I feel I have earned my two free flitraps for asking the fly question in the first place!

[kaylis1980]

 

how long did they take to come in?? i hate using fly spray all the time

[Egg Lou]

Thanks Roxanne

 

I received mine this week..complete with the additional instructions!!

 

Kaylis not sure if you mean the flys to get trapped or parcel to arrive.. I don't know about flys yet as only just got mine, but my delivery was very quick! Ordered on mid last week and received Monday..

 

Now just need the sunny weather back to try out!

[kaylis1980]

sorry i mean for it to arrive in the post. i ordered monday (i think?)

[Roxanne]

I got mine within 2 days - very quick response... maybe he's snowed under with orders now!!

As for the flies, within 48 hours mine was attracting and catching all sizes including bluebottles.

[abwsco]

Mine were here next day I think but they're still yet to start attracting the small bluebottles I've now got three set up in my small garden and it's been sunny and windy since we got them.

[kaylis1980]

i got them today, a small problem with one of the lids, a manufacter fault- i emailed him and he replied straight away- and is sending me 2 more- you really cant fault the excellent customer service
