Four chemical compounds previously shown to be attractants toHippelates eye gnats and houseflies were evaluated againstFannia femoralis (Stein). Two of the compounds, trimethylamine hydrochloride andn-butyric acid, were determined to be the principal attractants against this fly. A composition containing trimethylamine hydrochloride (yielding trimethylamine in presence of water),n-butyric acid, and an anchovy meal inert carrier proved highly attractive. To evaluate the practical use of the synthetic fly attractant (SFA) formulation, a large-scale trial over an entire poultry ranch was implemented using SFA formulation and a sugar toxicant (as a killing agent) in specially designed traps. Within 2 weeks after initiation of SFA-toxicant treatments, significant reduction inF. femoralis population from the pretreatment level occurred. This high level of reduction prevailed during the remainder of the treatment period.
四种先前被证明对 Hippelates 眼蝇和家蝇有吸引力的化合物被评估了对 Fannia femoralis (Stein) 的效果。两种化合物，盐酸三甲胺和丁酸，被确定是针对这种苍蝇的主要引诱剂。含有盐酸三甲胺（在有水的情况下产生三甲胺）、丁酸和凤尾鱼粉惰性载体的组合物被证明具有高度吸引力。为了评估合成蝇引诱剂（SFA）配方的实际用途，在一个整个家禽养殖场进行了大规模试验，使用 SFA 配方和糖毒剂（作为杀伤剂）在专门设计的诱捕器中。在开始 SFA-毒剂处理后的 2 周内，F. femoralis 种群从预处理水平显著减少。这种高水平的减少在整个治疗期间都存在。
