Controlling
the house fly population is important in maintaining a healthy poultry
barn environment. The presence of large numbers of flies in an area
can create a strain on neighbour and community relations. This guide
presents a range of management options that have been field tested
at various poultry farm operations. Acting on these options can
increase productivity and avoid nuisance complaints from neighbours.
Poultry farmers can tailor fly control strategies to match their
unique circumstances. These strategies do not guarantee all flies
will be eliminated from the farm, as they are part of the natural
environment.
