BUG BALL FLY TRAP

Let’s be honest…being bitten by a fly is just awful! Not only does it hurt…but also just gross. Thinking about where that fly has been, yuck! So when Chip was at a tradeshow recently and spotted this product, he was very excited to share it with the rest of the family.

  • Bug Ball’s unique, heavy duty, weather resistance PVC ball works naturally to attract biting flies. By hanging in the sun, adjacent to a shaded area, about 4-5 feet from the ground, the ball collects heat from the sun and acts as a food source for flies.
  • Catch Em’, a USA made sticky coating free of chemicals, pesticides, and Deet, can be either brushed or sprayed onto the surface of any Bug Ball or DIY trap. Available in both an 8oz brush bottle and a 10 oz spray, applying Catch Em’ is easy and effective, leaving you free to enjoy the outdoors without pesky biting flies.
  • The combination of the Bug Ball and Catch Em’ coating provides a natural, non-toxic fly trap that does not cause harm to humans or animals. It is the ideal solution to eliminate fly problems anywhere you go outside, including barns, lakes, backyards, gardens, and pools.
