The summer holidays are a time for being outdoors, unfortunately there are two insects, which can impair our enjoyment of being outside in the summer; Wasps and Flies! Wasps can be viewed as beneficial insects early in the summer, as they use some pests like caterpillars to feed their nests. However once the colony is fed later in the summer the workers become scavengers, this is when they target picnics, BBQs and pub gardens.
Harrod Horticultural now offers a cost effective, natural solution to this problem. The Harrod Wasp trap uses a natural attractant to lure wasps into a trap, once inside they run out of energy and die. By placing the trap just away from your eating and drinking area, wasps are diverted to the traps and not your food and drink! The unique natural attractant helps the trap catch high numbers of wasps but does not attract beneficial insects like Bees. The trap can be re-used many times and replacement attractant purchased.
Flies are another pest that builds up in the summer, especially in hot weather. They are very annoying and can spread disease. The Fli trap provides an effective method of catching high numbers of flies. The Fli trap is especially useful in equestrian settings where fly numbers can build up to extreme levels.The trap uses a natural bait to lure flies into the trap removing many hundreds of flies from the surrounding area. Simply add water to the bait and hang up the trap outdoors, within a few days the trap will be full of flies. The trap can be re-used many times and two baits are supplied with each trap.
