"Flytraps and Their Operation [1930] by F. C. Bishopp" is a scientific publication produced by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, notably revised in the early 20th century. The book provides a detailed examination of the methods and effectiveness of flytraps in controlling house flies and blowflies. It discusses not only the types of traps and baits that can be used but also emphasizes the importance of controlling breeding conditions as a primary means of reducing fly populations. The content of the book outlines various designs of traps, including conical traps and window traps, along with instructions for their construction and optimal placement. Bishopp elaborates on the types of flies that can be captured and offers comprehensive information on effective baiting strategies. It also highlights the role of flytraps as supplementary tools in fly control, emphasizing that they should be combined with preventive measures to effectively manage fly populations. Overall, the guide serves as a practical resource for farmers and individuals seeking to mitigate the nuisance and health risks associated with flies, particularly in agricultural settings.
