I thought the same thing. Haha. I thought "Well how do they know it's exactly 20,000? What if it's 19,999? I know they didn't have someone go through and individually count 20,000 little tiny wasps." 😂 That's just my pessimistic side taking over lol.

Out of all the years that I used the wasps from the 70's thru the 90's and even into the first 10yrs of 2000+ I was able to do away with chemical products and most of all the fly 🪰 traps!! My Dad had a horse farm plus numerous dogs, chickens, peacocks, guinea hens and cattle. The first year we ordered 30,000 every so many weeks & by the end of the summer we definitely noticed . The neighbors that were the closest commented that the flies weren't as bad. We were told that they would search the manure and other poop from around the area. I gave out the name of the company to many of my friends and neighbors. The more ppl that use the wasps that live in close proximity the better the elimination of flies!!! I now live in the country with a couple small dogs and cats. W/O the wasps after 15yrs the traps and even fly strips have been back in use!! I plus 4 of the previous neighbors that moved didn't keep up with the wasps since we no longer have the livestock but more new neighbors with sheep, goats, birds etc and the flies are multiplying!!!!

25 years ago I worked for a PhD at a college I attended and she and her students were working on natural predators for eliminating bugs. Because I typed up her notes and read her students work I am a firm believer in natural remedies to pests. I used Comfortis on my dogs for years because it worked to eliminate fleas without the chemicals. Her work was mostly in nematodes and their fight against grubs and other burrowing bugs. I am hoping this works for you all. How has the treatment of the mites on the goats progressed? I live neat Fort Worth TX and we have been having a heat wave. My old dog Mr. Cash has been really struggling with the heat (I have too) since when I adopted him from the pound he was infested with heartworms. They and the treatment to free him of them compromised his breathing. That is how dogs cool off, for the most part, on triple digit days. So, I said all that to ask if you could say a prayer for him. I don't believe in making a dog suffer to just be my companion. My concern is that he has begun to have congestive heart failure. He is 95 pounds and is 14 years old. Thanks for your videos. Sorry about the long post. GOD bless you all.

That way the animals would not get to them. Thank you for sharing! Blessings to you and your family!🕊✝🙏🏼💖

Hi Kevin, I know that Jason put out a couple of batches of these over time. You may need to spread these a couple of times to get the best benefit of them working. That being said, Jason spreads his in a larger more open area and you are placing them in the enclosed barns which may be more efficient and not require more. I just wanted to put this out there. It may take at least one more application. Just say'n. 😊 I so enjoy your videos. Thank you for sharing with us.

I make fly traps from plastic milk jugs. Put an inch or so of water in the bottom, a few pieces or weenie or bits of meat, and cut a couple upside down V's near the top. Push the V in so flies are able to climb in the hole. And hang them in a tree. I use a couple of these traps when I go camping. Besides flies they catch yellow jackets too. They do tend to stink a bit, but that's when they start working the best. When you're through with them just put them in a garbage bag, tie it closed, and drop it in a dumpster.

Kevin, all I could guess for the other insects you bought was Green Lacewings. The green lacewing (Chrysoperla sp.) is a common beneficial insect found in the floral landscape. They are a generalist predator best known for feeding on aphids, but will also control mites and other soft-bodied insects such as caterpillars, leafhoppers, mealybugs and whiteflies. Maybe that was it? The answer to most garden pests is the Tachinid fly, (family Tachinidae), any member of a family of insects in the fly order, Diptera. The feather-legged fly (Trichopoda pennipes), is famous for parasitizing squash bugs, stink bugs, and other true bugs. Other predatory insects including the bigeyed bug (Geocoris punctipes), Pagasa fusca and the damsel bug (Nabis sp) directly munch on the all the stages of squash bugs whereas the feather-legged fly adults parasitizes both the nymphal and adult squash bugs but adults of the scelionid wasp (Gyron pennsylvanicum) parasitizes eggs of squash bugs. Adult Tachinid flies lay eggs on the squash bugs, and the larvae consume squash bugs as food. Adult flies feed only on nectar and pollen, so they won't harm your vegetable plants. Ground beetles and damsel flies will also prey upon squash bug eggs if they can find them. Something that most people don’t remember to do is plant the foods that these predatory flies need to keep them in the area and working for you. They feed on sunflowers, carrots, dill, parsley, alfalfa, clover and radish flowers. Having a patch of these will keep them working in your garden for future cycles. Hope this helps.

You show everything exactly how it is and don't play things up for the camera. Not that the other channels necessarily do that, either. But yall just feel more natural and real along with showing a wide variety of things going on around the farm in each video.

These do work, but if you have fire ants, like we do, the ants get to the pupae before the flies can hatch. I've even tried hanging them in a little net bag off the fence, and the ants still found them. And chickens will eat the pupae. Takes about 2 weeks to break the fly cycle and see results. Also, if you have close neighbors who don't have their flies under control, you will still get them.

When you are out, working in the yard, or cutting grass, seems they are attracted to sweat maybe. They land on you, and give a little sting. It like a pinch. Very irritating! I hate them. I would rather deal with flies. Unless they are something different. But they sure look like them. The ones I am talking about are very hard. And hard to kill by crushing them. They are super hard.

OMG I haven't seen "fly wasps" in ages. Those work wonders because the actually go after the flies. If it a larger fly they will lay eggs inside the fly and the wasp's larva will kill the fly.

@@jackiesaylor2487 Garlic (and onions) are poisonous to dogs. While a dog may be able to consume a small amount of garlic and not sustain long term damage, authorities are conflicted about small amounts over a long period of time, or even what amount is "safe" short term. It seems to differ from dog to dog. You'd be better off to be safe and not sorry. If you have any questions, consult your veterinarian.

Kevin, a raptor is a bird of prey. I think the "raptors" from JP were a nickname. I found a BLM website that says: "The word raptor comes from the Latin rapere, which mean to seize or plunder - an apt way to describe birds that swoop down on their prey."
