Abstract

Field tests in poultry-caged-layer operations showed that 0.5% hempa + 0.5% thiourea or 1.0% hempa in sugar bait, 1.0% trichlorfon in granular sugar bait, and 1.0% dimethoate in water applied to the droppings at the rate of 1 g active ingredient/m^2 all gave good control of house flies, Musca domestica L. Releases of sterile flies in a pig-rearing establishment combined with weekly larvicide treatments (1.0% coumaphos in water at the rate of 1 g/m^2) reduced the field fly population by more than 5-fold.
