Now that spring time is here, and breeding and egg laying has started for most. What do any of you do about those annoying little Carrion Flies? Do you have them? We all work hard to get fertile clutches and it just stinks to have flies attack them. I have heard using nylon stockings,pest strips,closed container incubation, and various other things. I actually heard the other day that someone was spraying the outside of the container with "Provent-a-Mite" and none of his eggs were attacked. Of course it was sprayed days before the eggs actually went in. I know I am not the only one that has had them in the past.
What is some of the things you do to prevent them? Any eradication methods used? Any Thoughts?
I think they come from low grade sphagnum moss.(Used to buy at Lowe's or HD) I changed and bought AAA New Zealand this year and so far no problems. Might be worth the extra money, not only that it lasts much longer.
