Taon-X Horsefly Trap – up to 95% fewer horseflies on the pasture

Horseflies are among the biggest nuisances for horses and livestock in summer.

The sturdy, hot-dip galvanised frame with integrated ground auger is quick to assemble and stays firmly in place in wind and weather. The Taon-X is ideal for horse paddocks, cattle pastures, riding stables, arenas, gardens and parks – wherever horseflies become a problem.

Questions & Answers:

How does the trap work?
The dark ball heats up in the sun, simulating a target for the horsefly to feed on. Since horseflies can only fly upwards to escape, they are guided through the white shield into the collection container.

Where must the trap not be placed?
The trap must not be used in nature reserves or protected habitats, in line with local wildlife protection regulations.

How often does the collection container need to be emptied?
Check the container weekly, or daily if horsefly numbers are high, and top it up with soapy water if needed.

Insekten werden gefangen.

Die Stangen hab ich noch nicht montieren können, funktioniert bei trockenen Boden nicht. Ball ließ sich gut aufpumpen, restliche Montage auch sehr simpel. Deckel von dem auffangbehälter ist etwas streng zum einrasten, hab eine andere die zum Schrauben ist welche praktischer ist. Die Bänder sind mir auch nicht so sympathisch, bei der anderen ist die Halterung aus Metall und dort zum draufkletten. Hab sie momentan auf einen Baum gehängt, das würde wiederum mit der anderen nicht funktionieren. Grundlegend funktioniert die Falle und fängt die lästigen Insekten.

    Kerbl Taon-X Eco Horsefly Trap for Pasture & Stable
    Kerbl Taon-X Eco Horsefly Trap for Pasture & Stable

    Taon-X Eco Horsefly Trap – effective protection for pasture, stable and garden The Taon-X Eco horsefly trap is the compact version of the proven Taon-X trap, ideal for smaller areas or locations where ground mounting isn't possible. Thanks to the included link chain, you simply hang the trap from a tree, beam or ceiling – instantly reducing the horsefly presence around your animals. The clever mechanism uses the natural behaviour of horseflies against them: the dark ball heats up in the sun, mimicking a blood-sucking target. After the failed attempt, the flies instinctively fly upwards and land in the catch container. This way, the Taon-X Eco reliably protects horses, livestock and people, with zero chemicals.
