# Biological and Chemical Fly Control - Pest Control

Biofly Control specialises in biological fly management for poultry farms across Devon and beyond, offering an environmentally responsible alternative to traditional chemical pest control methods. Based in Lympstone, the company provides expert advice and supplies parasitic wasps—tiny, naturally occurring insects no larger than gnats—that effectively control fly populations by parasitising fly pupae before they mature.

The business primarily serves free-range and organic poultry producers who face significant fly challenges during warmer months. Flies pose serious problems on farms, spreading disease and causing stress to birds, yet many producers struggle with limited control options due to environmental regulations, resistance issues, or organic certification restrictions that prohibit conventional chemicals.

What sets Biofly Control apart is their promotion of a sustainable, low-impact solution with no environmental or health risks to humans, birds, or beneficial insects. The parasitic wasps are EU-bred and fully approved, offering a cost-effective alternative to expensive chemical treatments. The company provides tailored guidance for each farm's specific requirements, accounting for house structure, flock size, and existing fly problems.

Rather than offering a one-size-fits-all approach, Biofly Control recognises that successful fly management combines parasitic wasp deployment with integrated strategies including improved sanitation, fly paper, ultraviolet killers, and pheromone traps. Their expertise extends beyond poultry to other livestock enterprises, making them a comprehensive biological control resource for mixed farming operations.
