 No Fly Zone Summer pests are flies. Two ways to battle the little devils are fly spray and fly predators. We provided a recipe (below) for organic homemade fly spray. You can also declare biological warfare on flies with fly predators. Fly predators are tiny, completely biteless and stingless wasp‐like insects. They live their entire life cycle on or near manure and eat pest fly pupa, killing the immature flies before they can bother you and your animals or reproduce. You order them just after the last hard frost, and if you start on time, you can prevent flies from ever starting to build up. You will want to avoid spraying your horse with fly spray around manure piles, as you wouldn’t want to harm your new little friends! » more Biological Warfare On Flies With Fly Spray And Fly Predators
Box traps are a relatively easy design that are easy to set up and if triggered are nearly 100% reliable. These traps can be made to any size for any animal that will take bait. The disadvantage is that some wild animals are very hesitant to walk into a cage, also box traps need to be heavily constructed there for can be quite expensive. » more Box Traps
 Harris Hawk Is becoming increasingly common to fly live captive bred predator birds to scare pest birds away from infested areas, especially awkward sites such as pylons, telegraph wires, radio masts, landfill sites, complex buildings, public places etc. A variety of different predators are used as their suitability for different situations varies. Species used include Sparrowhawks, Harris Hawks, Gyr Falcons, Peregrine Falcons, Saker Falcons, Lanner Falcons, Hybrid Falcons etc.
Sparrow Hawks are small very agile birds that might be used for dispersing sparrows or starlings where the predators need to manoeuvre between narrow gaps such as telegraphy wires, roof joists etc. » more Predator Birds

Trapping
Trapping is used if a local population becomes a nuisance. The secret to trapping is to pre-bait for about one week before setting the trap. Also, remember that birds can learn quickly how to escape a trap, so it may be necessary to try different types of traps to keep the birds from becoming trap shy or trap smart.
 Multi Catch Trap When large numbers of birds are a nuisance, funnel or drop-in multi-catch traps are used. Some crafty birds have learned to come and go through a funnel trap as easily as a person walks through a doorway. By adding bobs to the funnel entrance you can out-smart those individuals. Many traps can be homemade and funnel entrance traps are also commercially available. Some traps like the elevator traps are only available in garden supply catalogs. In some situations numerous birds can be trapped at one time with a clap-net trap (examples of the clap-trap are the clap-net, consisting of two nets laid flat on the ground and attached to cords in such a manner that they fly up and close when the draw-cord is pulled by a concealed trapper; and the various other spring-traps used by bird-catchers). The sieve trap and the nest box traps are effective for taking a few nuisance individuals. » more Bird Trapping And Bird Repellents
