It’s been a mad week.

Apologies to all those who had to wait longer than expected for the new H-Trap.
Apologies to the FedEx crew who had to sort out the 70+ traps we sent out in one day
Apologies to all those who want to buy one as we have sold out again

I hope those who received one yesterday are happy with their purchase. It’s hot, the flies are out, everyone is being pestered.

I hope to have some good news on Monday as we may have be able to secure another pallet. If we do it will be the last for this year.

Everyone who placed orders up to last night will receive their traps on Tuesday.

Enjoy the weekend.

There are many flies around at this time of year. Always good to know your enemy. This is Sarcophaga carnaria, a European species of flesh fly. In common with cluster flies their larvae (maggots) mostly feed on earthworms. Adults are attracted to rotting meat and faeces so will be attracted to the fly bag but only stumble into the H-Trap by accident.

Apologies to those that are waiting for deliveries. We have had a greater demand this year than last when we sold out completely by this time. More stock is arriving this week and all back orders I hope to have delivered by Friday. Here’s hoping. Oh and green canopies will be back in stock too.

Not just horseflies bite. Deer Flies (genus Chrysops) also have a nibble and are often more silent. These are large flies with large brightly coloured compound eyes, and large clear wings with dark bands. They are larger than the common housefly and smaller than the horse-fly. They appear more triangular at rest. Here’s one that tried to bite me earlier. I think it is the Splayed Deerfly - Chrysops caecutiens. It’s a bit more splayed now.

Many clients can’t seem to find spares for the H-Trap. Apologies for that. We must have a word with our webdesigner as we have always supplied these. The most popular items can be found here. For others, please ask.

It has been a mad couple of weeks with record shipments meaning we are temporarily out of stock. We sold out in two weeks last year and couldn’t get more but we have a couple of extra pallets on their way to us. The photo are orders going out.So if you have already placed an order, please be patient. We will get to you as quickly as we can.

Nothing like a hot weekend in June to bring the horseflies out and the orders to flood in. Will be a busy week ahead. To all who have placed orders with us over the weekend, and there have been a few, we will do our utmost to get your order to you asap. Many are leaving us tomorrow and a second large batch is planned for Tuesday. Please be kind to your courier on arrival. It isn’t easy driving around in a van with no air con when the temperatures are crazily high.

Happy fly catching when you take delivery.

One more year and the horsefly season is starting. We’ve been sending out replacement canopies and catch chambers over the last few weeks to those who have been getting ready early, which is great to see. The big change this year is the move to the blue & black canopy or funnel.

Independent trials in horsefly afflicted markets have shown a marked increase in fly catch compared to the green version. As a result we have wholeheartedly embraced the science and moved over to the new canopy version for 2026. All new H-Trap orders will be the new updated version. More flies means happier customers and contented horses.
