One way to control the fly is to catch
1t in such trap as is shown above.
The trap may be placed near gar
bage can, or any other place that the
flies are sure to come. A
simple and effective trap may
be made from a grocery box
by substituting wire netting
for the top and two sides, cut
ting a round hole in the bot
tom and inserting in it wire
netting cone with an eight
inch opening at the bottom
and a half inch openingA at
the top. Some article of food,
preferably fish head, should
be placed inside for bait. The
trap must be elevated several
inches above the ground SO
as to give the flies chance
to enter. When the trap 10
full, 1t may be emptied by
shaking its contents through
small opening, ordinarily
closed by a sliding door. The
trap described and shown in
the illustration is q particu-
larly effective one, as it was
planned with view to the
hy's habits. The odor of food
leads the fly to enter the trap
at the bottom. Once inside
1t is attracted to the top by
the light When it gets out
of the wire cone It cannot es-
cape. The trap has the additional
virtue Of being inexpensive. It may
be made at . cost Of about twenty
cents and in about q half hours time.
