Lumpy infection mostly effected the skin of animals that is categorized as lumpy jaw, lumpy skin, sheep pox virus, Goat pox virus.
The disease spreads quickly, especially in animals that have never been exposed to the virus. The disease can cause fever, skin tumors, and even result in death in many cases.

In less than a month, the virus in Gujarat’s Saurashtra and Kutch areas has reached alarming proportions, afflicting more than 50,000 cow heads and spreading to 20 of the state’s 33 divisions.

FLYTRAP’s significance in preventing lumpy skin disease.

  • FLYTRAP serves to maintain the health of animals used for food and milk production.
  • Flytraps are made to collect flies in areas like farms, poultry farms, shopping centres, and vacation rental properties.
  • The fly trap is essential in preventing the lamphy skin disease, which is most likely spread by flies because they are so adept at shifting diseases around.

 

HOW THE TRAP SYSTEMS WORK?

Water and patented bait are poured into the traps. Fly attractant is produced as a result of the mixture. The caged flies fall to their deaths in the water-based concoction. The components of the bait are not harmful or toxic.

TRAPPING TIPS

  1. Traps are primarily designed for outdoor use with the aim of deterring flies from the shelters. Depending on the wind, the device often draws flies from a distance of 30 to 40 feet.
  2.  A wide variety of insects, especially houseflies and blowflies, will be drawn to bait.
  3. If the solution falls below the “fill” line, add water to the trap. To drown the trapped flies, water is required.
  4. Set traps in sunny locations since flies prefer heat, light, and calm winds. Place traps no closer than 6 feet from an electrical light source if in an enclosed space, such as a barn.
  5. Expect little activity below 65 degrees Fahrenheit (18 degrees Celsius) since flies dorm until this temperature is reached.
  6. For reusable traps, after they’ve been loaded with flies, should they be dumped, rebaited, and refilled with water? Replacement baits are available.

FlyTrap came up with a product concept that effectively traps flies while causing no harm to the cattle. The farm owners can safeguard their cattle’s health by using the fly catching technology.

Our fly traps are completely organic and works not only on male but female flies too. This way the root to the problem is eradicated as trapping female flies stops the reproduction cycle. Our fly traps are non-toxic, non-poisonous, and chemical-free. This way even if the bait is ingested by animals, it is harmless. In addition to this, as the fly traps are made of organic materials, once it is fully filled, one can easily dispose it off without harming the environment.
