EcoCatch Flies
EcoCatch Flies helps reduce outdoor fly populations by using strategically placed bait stations that attract flies with food-based lures and targeted attractants before they can enter your building. Once drawn in, flies come into contact with the station’s control agents, which help eliminate active adults and disrupt the breeding cycle to help reduce future populations.
