What’s more, with the destruction of their natural enemies like lizards and frogs due to rampant urbanization, flies are a BIG menace that is growing everyday – almost unchecked!

People and businesses have tried many ways to contain this menace but with limited success and more headaches. For example, insect repellents repel and don’t kill to control flies’ spread, other pesticides are poisonous and leave harmful residue (dead flies that are poisoned). So, what’s needed is a user-friendly nontoxic solution that is organic, affordable, easy to dispose and easily available.

A globally tested and trusted flies-killer, FlyTrap is finally available in India and is perhaps the perfect solution to ease the menace of flies for various sectors.

This 30-year-old US-developed product is manufactured and marketed in India by FlyTrap.in and is customised for Indian conditions. Devoted to transforming micro businesses at the India-grassroots level (rural, semi-urban) where 68% of India resides and prospers, FlyTrap kills only flies as its nontoxic-organic component is harmful to only flies and is harmless to other animals and humans. All you need is to add a glass of water to its potent mixture and hang its disposable bag in a suitable open place for around 30 days, it attracts and kills flies like a magic magnet while collecting dead flies in its bag!

When Flytrap’s biodegradable, easy-to-use bag gets filled with dead flies, simply replace it with a fresh bag and start removing more of the dangerous flies in a new convenient way. Now easily, safely & intelligently kill one of your biggest enemy- flies to boost your business progress, profits and reputation with the peace of mind you deserve!

To learn more about this award-winning miracle flies’ killer and business booster just visit www.flytrap.in and a series of educative YouTube posts viz https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xzORzSZKhIU. Extremely cost-effective, the Flytrap box containing three bags is nominally priced at Rs 999/- per box and is available at introductory price of Rs. 699/- per box.

Speaking on the launch of Flytrap Bags in India, Mr. Gaurav Aggarwal, Chief Executive Officer, Flytrap.in remarked, ” Our in-depth research proved beyond doubt that an effective solution was required immediately to tackle various problems related to flies in sectors such as Sericulture, Dairy, Poultry etc. as production efficiencies were hugely impacted. Problems like Foot and mouth diseases, Farcy etc. impact the dairy animals and production by up to 30%. Uzi flies directly harm the silkworms and mango harvest. And in poultry, flies create unhygiene which highly affect the health of birds and residents staying near the farms. It is strongly suspected that flies transmit at least 65 diseases to humans among them are typhoid fever, dysentery, cholera, polio, yaws, anthrax, tularemia, leprosy and tuberculosis etc.

So, house flies are known to carry pathogens that can cause serious and life-threatening diseases in humans and animals. We are indeed delighted to launch Flytrap Bags, an innovative product in India. Flytrap (www.Flytrap.in), a US-based parent company is a global winner since 1994. FlyTrap was first brought to India in 2009 after many years of in-depth research, extensive educative marketing and sales outreach. FlyTrap’s operations took off in a big manner in 2019. While initially focused on poultry and dairy farms, Covid’s lockdown brought in a new customer base in Sericulture farms through social media influencers and since then there is no looking back! The Sericulture was a game changer as this sector got a huge respite from flies thereby boosting production.”

Elaborating on the developmental plans for Flytrap bags, Mr. Aggarwal said, “We foresee immense potential for Flytrap Bags in India as India is at the cusp of change with various sectors growing. The Flytrap bags are manufactured at the state-of-the-art manufacturing factory based in New Delhi, under license from US Parent with strict adherence to global quality standards. Currently, Flytrap Bags are marketed through our own website – FlyTrap.in, eCommerce portals like Amazon, Flipkart, etc. and distributor network in Maharashtra, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu. We are now expanding aggressively to launch it in other states. We have a larger gameplan in place for this product. To this end, we have invested over 4 crores in growing our sales network and digital outreach. We are confident to make Flytrap the ‘Make-In-India’ initiative and address our farmers’ problems. We are driven to make a real difference to the soul of India-rural economy with FlyTrap bags as flies are a big nuisance to businesses. We are committed to get rid of their BIG headache of flies so everyone can progress faster, better, and healthier!

So go ahead and unleash the power of FlyTrap – Non-toxic, Organic, and Fly-Proof!
