Horsefly Trap

The #HTrap ball heats up in the sun and the female #horsefly mistakes this as a horse (or you). When it lands on the ball but fails to find a blood meal it takes off but is funnelled up into the catch chamber. Once trapped #horseflies die by dehydration. Simple and effective.

We are the exclusive suppliers of the H-Trap Horsefly System for the UK. Other companies (below) bring them in from Europe, are more expensive and have poor stock. Next day delivery included as standard (Mainland UK but Highlands/Islands a bit longer). horseflytrap.co.uK

The traps are so valuable in this heat we've put Eric on guard duty. #horseflytrap #horsefly

And so to bed. Staycationing 2021 style. Camping at home protected by an H-Trap. #horsefly

Horseflies land on the ball, cannot feed and take off frustrated only to be funnelled up into the catch chamber above. Simple.

It's peak horsefly time. Our green catch chamber is designed to be UV resistant. Should you need to replace yours we have them in our spare parts section horseflytrap.co.uk

Not just for horses. We only put this trap up 2 minutes earlier and already we had a visitor. #horsefly horseflytrap.co.uk

It's #Horsefly season which means it's #HTrap time. No glue, no insecticide just pure #physicalattraction

If you have not erected your H-Trap yet this year, be aware that the recent rains, if followed by warmer temperatures (and we can but hope) then the clegs will not be that far behind. Now is a time to order spares (horseflytrap.co.uk/product-c…) or even a new trap.

We receive many enquiries and are happy to send #horseflytraps to clients in France and Italy. #Horseflies are very active there from May to September. Some species peak in the spring, some in the autumn. Many are present and actively biting all summer long.
