The Efficacy of Traps and Instant Baits for Fly Traps Experiment in Breeding Sites

Abstract

This study was to evaluate the efficacy of fly traps "instant fly traps" and " Khon Tarn traps" with "instant bait" and "Decomposing meat bait" in 3 breeding sites; the market, animal farm and garbage. The Fly number trapped were use for index efficacy of all experimental types. It was found that the fly density in those sites above were 16, 59 and 310 flies/m³, respectively. The efficacy of Khon Tarn traps+Decomposing meat baits were equal there was no difference on statistic significant (P-value =0.710). But the efficacy of them were higher than the instant fly traps+ Decomposing meat bait and the instant fly traps+ instant bait in statistic significant (P-value =0.000). Most of fly species were Musca domestica and Metallic fly.

The results of this study showed that "Khon Tarn+ Decomposing meat bait "have efficacy higher than "instant trap+ instant bait "and suitable for use controls the fly. However, this trap model could be improve for prevent animal nuisance to at use time period.
