     synomone (an interspecies,
   chemical communication) that
  alerts and warns other kinds of
 flies to stay away from the food,
   since BSF are already present

 Biological Control: The use of Fly Parasites on a regular basis along with traps and
 natural baits
 The need for chemical sprays can be eliminated by adopting a program of Biological Fly
 Control. Such a program includes regular releases of Fly Parasites, aimed at
 destroying flies at their source, or breeding sites.

 The need for chemical sprays can be eliminated by adopting a program of Biological Fly
 Control. Such a program includes regular releases of Fly Parasites, aimed at
 destroying flies at their source, or breeding sites. It also includes the use of traps with
 attractant baits which will help eliminate the adult fly population.

 Cultural Control: Using good sanitation practices
 Do not allow manure to pile up around the farm.
 The manure should be piled or composted .
 This reduces the surface area and results in
 heat generation within the pile, driving the
 pest larvae to the surface within reach of the
 control method. Elimination of as many wet
 areas as possible while using EME and EM

Biological Control: The use of Fly Parasites on a regular basis along with traps and natural baits The need for chemical sprays can be eliminated by adopting a program of Biological Fly Control. Such a program includes regular releases of Fly Parasites, aimed at destroying flies at their source, or breeding sites. It also includes the use of traps with attractant baits which will help eliminate the adult fly population. Cultural Control: Using good sanitation practices Do not allow manure to pile up around the farm. The manure should be piled or composted . This reduces the surface area and results in heat generation within the pile, driving the pest larvae to the surface within reach of the control method. Elimination of as many wet areas as possible while using EME and EM
