Mine were hung about 30 feet away from the coop. I've never had problems in the coop or run, just in the "chicken yard". Those mostly went away after I got rid of the traps. They seemed to be pulling them in from somewhere else!Oh my gosh you are so smart! Haha! Didn’t think of hanging them “away” from the coops.. How far away do you hang them? I figure they cover a certain radius, probably.
I hung them in my coop at first til my son pointed out that I was attracting the flies to the coopOh my gosh you are so smart! Haha! Didn’t think of hanging them “away” from the coops.
. I hang ours about 6-10 feet away from the coop.
I’ll give these a try next! Looks like they get the job done. The very first time I tried fly ribbon INSIDE the coop and it stuck to my poor girls
I changed out the traps yesterday and put up two new ones, a distance from the coop. There are still flies but not nearly as bad as there was before, and the traps are still snagging them. Thank you!
