Farnam QuikStrike Fly Scatter Bait

QuikStrike uses Dinotefuran as its active ingredient, which belongs to a different chemical class than many older, traditional fly baits. This allows it to effectively control house fly populations that have developed resistance to common insecticides.

QuikStrike is designed for use in livestock and poultry facilities and stables. However, it should always be applied in areas inaccessible to animals, children, and pets to prevent accidental ingestion.

Z-9-tricosene is a fly pheromone that acts as an attractant. It works by signaling to flies that the bait is a food source, drawing them in more effectively than bait without the additive.

Both methods are effective. Scatter baiting is ideal for quick, broad coverage in areas where flies congregate, while bait stations offer a cleaner, more contained option that keeps the product out of high-traffic zones.

Rotating between different classes of insecticides is a best practice to prevent flies from developing resistance to any single chemical. Because QuikStrike uses Dinotefuran, it is a highly effective tool to swap in when you need to break the cycle of resistance.
