You need a horsefly trap to stop horseflies and wasps and this horsefly trap ensures that 95% of horseflies is captured.
The MultiTrap, a portable horsefly trap, also known as the MT-trap, has been designed to eradicate horseflies and wasps.
The MT Horsefly Trap is supplied excluding the metal bracket.
Instructions for positioning the MT-Trap:
- The principle of the multiTrap works only outdoors because the sunlight is needed to heat up the ball
- Do not hang the multiTrap in an area where you normally sit (i.e., terraces, etc.)
- Place the multiTrap in an area where it is (partially) exposed to sunlight. In shady areas, the multiTrap is less effective
- Place the multiTrap at a height of at least one meter and a maximum of 1.80 meters
- If you want to contain a wasp plague with the multiTrap, pour lure into the catch container
How it works?
A horsefly trap takes the form of a black ball that is heated by the sun and releases heat. The ball swings slowly back and forth in the wind and is taken for an animal by the horsefly, which tries to sting it. However, horseflies are unable to pierce the ball with their stings. When their attempt fails, they fly upwards in search of another target, only to become trapped. Horseflies and wasps can only fly upwards, which means that they are caught in the trap container.
To trap wasps, pour a sweet and sugary lure like sugar water, jam, or meat in the container. We recommend protein baits (for early-season wasps) or Sweet Baits (for late-season wasps).
