Here's another odd-ball contraption I put together to deal with an enclosure with just TOO MANY flies. Kind of a FlyHut.
I cut a hole in the bottom of a delicup...
Then cut the top off a water bottle and jammed it in the openning...
I glued the cut bottle in place...
Loaded with fly food (as a lure)...
Then popped a lid on it...
And plugged it into a feeding port.
Flies were into the hut about 2 minutes later. Once it was relatively full, I put it in the freezer for 4 minutes, and removed the flies (they went into a neighboring enclosure).
I'm keeping the "hut" in place over night, as the hole is too small for a large Idolo to crawl through.
Thoughts...?
