Abstract
Laboratory tests showed that liquid baits containing malathion, Diazinon, and Bayer L 13/59 as toxicants were highly effective in killing house flies. In subsequent field tests, baits containing these toxicants and molasses, sugar, or corn syrup as attractants gave excellent control of house flies when sprinkled on the floors of dairy barns. A malathion-molasses bait also gave satisfactory control in a garbage disposal area.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
