Hi, I just wondered if anyone uses fly predators and if so how well they work and where you get them from? Thanks very much. Love Lucy x

Hi, they're little bugs you can get that are meant to reduce the fly population. They sound really good but i think probably more of a US thing. www.spalding-labs.com sells them in the US. I was just wondering of anyone uses them on here but it seems they don't! x

Jeez! You mean you can actually buy LIVE alien species from abroad to deliberately introduce into an environment where they don't normally exist??? I would have thought that was 100% illegal. What's your take on Japanese Knotweed, rabbits and grey squirrels then?

Not permitted I am afraid.

They won't ship the blasted things to me and I live next door, without an ocean separating landmasses.

Hi! No I wasn't thinking of buying them from US!!! I was just wondering if anyone used them and bought them in the UK. I just posted the link as I'd read about them there and wondered if it was something used in this country. x

Hi! I don't think I made my original question very clear!!! I was just wondering if anyone used and bought them in this country and if so where from (but it doesn't seem they do!). I just posted the US link to show what they were!! I don't want people to think I would consider shipping live things from abroad! x
