    Q
    Can Maxforce Granular Fly Bait kill my dog if he eats it??
    Will my dog eat it if left out??
    A

    Maxforce Fly product can be dangerous for any animal if they eat enough of it. You can use the bait in a tamper resistant station to avoid having non-target animals consume the bait.

    Q
    How do I need to use the Maxforce fly granules around my house?
    How do I need to use the Maxforce fly granules around my house? We have two small children and two outside animals, and I'm concerned about spreading the granules around outside.
    A

    We would recommend placing the fly bait inside our tamper proof fly bait stations.  The stations require a key to open them and safely house the bait and protect it from children and pets.  Only the flies can get into the stations.

    Q
    What is the shelf life of Maxforce Granular Fly Bait?
    I only have a fly problem during summer. Will it last a year or more in the bucket?
    A

    The Maxforce Granular Fly Bait has a shelf life of 2 years unopened.  Once it is opened, it will last about a year as long as you keep the lid on securely when not in use.  You could expect to get two summers of treatment out of one bucket.

  • Asked by Jeff from Moreland, Georgia
    05/21/2013
    Q
    how and where do the flies die?
    using a bait station, do the flies die "inside" the station, or do they fly out of the station and die elsewhere? If they die elsewhere, would it be dangerous for my chickens to consume the dead fly?
    A

    There is not a set place that the flies will die. Some may die inside the station, some may not. It will depend on how much the fly eats and how far it makes it before the poison takes effect. The chance of any secondary poisoning to your chickens is extremely unlikely as the poison once ingested by…

    Q
    Is Maxforce fly bait effective for horse flies, the very large flies commonly found on horses?
    this is regarded as a bait, can it be made into a liquid solution and sprayed directly on the horse?

    Q
    Why don't you sell the granular fly bait in smaller quantities
    I don't have a barn or a restaurant - I would just like to use this around my house and yard. With a shelf life of only 2 years I don't think I need such a big pail.
    A

    We can only sell the sizes that the manufacturers make the baits in. In the case of Maxforce Fly Bait Granules the smallest size they are offering is 5 lbs. We do sell another brand which rates very high with our customers called Golden Malrin fly Bait and it comes in the smaller 1 lb can size.

    Q
    Can this granular bait in the 5 lb. pail be used as a spray?
    I see there is a 2oz packet that can be mixed for a pump sprayer, as well as a liquid. Can this granular product be used as a spray, or is it solely for bait stations as well as a paint on application? I'm trying to get the most for my money compared to the packets.
    A

    You would not be able to apply this bait in a pump sprayer since mixing it with water produces a thick paste; the product does not dissolve fully in water. You could also save some money by purchasing a generic of this product called Bonanza Fly Bait. The Maxforce Fly Spot Bait is the only liquid fl…
