Why Deer Flies Are Such a Nightmare (And Why Sprays Don't Work)


Deerfly Guy Kit deer fly traps available from Plum Hollow Farms in Delta, Ontario, Canada.

Deer flies don't just bite. They hunt.


They zero in on movement and warmth, and once they've locked on, they're relentless. Standard bug sprays barely slow them down, and citronella candles might as well be decoration as far as we're concerned.


Sticky strips you place on your hat can work pretty good, but that means you need to be there as the bait, and when you're not there, nothing is reducing their numbers.


You don't have to eliminate every deer fly on the planet. You just have to reduce the ones living within 500 feet of the area you're trying to enjoy.

What most people don't know is that deer flies stay fairly local. They stake out a territory of about 500 feet in radius and stay in that zone. That means the ones ruining last Saturday on the dock are the same ones that will ruin every Saturday on the dock, unless you start trapping them!


Remove them consistently, and you'll notice a significant, lasting difference where you eat, swim, and play.


How Deer Fly Guy Traps Actually Work


Deerfly Guy Kit deer fly traps available from Plum Hollow Farms in Delta, Ontario, Canada.

Each cup is colour-optimized to be irresistible to Deer Flies specifically. You coat them with the included sticky coating, and that's it.


And since the colour does a large part of the attracting, the traps keep working even when you're not around.


No batteries. No standing over it with a swatter.


Field testing shows a single cup stays effective for six to eight weeks, which for most people is the entire Deer Fly season from one setup.


Our favourite placement trick is to arrange 4 to 6 traps in a loose square around the seating area, just out of reach of kids and pets, creating a quiet perimeter between you and the biting little monsters.


It's so satisfying to watch the Deer Flies land, stick, and meet their insect maker.


Targets Deer Flies, Leaves the Good Guys Alone


The colour wasn't picked at random. It was selected because Deer Flies are strongly drawn to it, while bees, butterflies, and other beneficials largely ignore it. We're not nuking your garden ecosystem.


We're targeting the one insect that serves absolutely nobody's interests except its own.


One heads-up:


Keep Deer Fly Guy traps well away from hummingbird feeders, and always out of reach of children, pets, hair, and clothing.


The adhesive is non-toxic but extremely sticky. If contact occurs, remove with cooking oil and wash with soap and water.
