Each kit includes three durable PVC inflatable balls plus inflation needles; they’re designed to be hung where biting flies congregate, coated with a non-toxic sticky formula (Catch EM’ sold separately). Lightweight and portable, these traps are suited to yards, barns, stables, orchards and recreational areas where flying pests are a nuisance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do these deer fly balls actually trap insects?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe balls act as visual attractors: flies are drawn to the round, contrasting surface and land on the coated sticky layer where they become immobilized.

This Bug Ball kit fits homeowners, ranchers, and outdoor caretakers who prefer a low-maintenance, chemical-free way to reduce biting fly populations around living spaces, animal areas, and recreational sites. It’s practical for gardeners, pool owners, orchard managers and barn operators who want portable, durable traps that are simple to set up and refresh seasonally. If you already use Catch EM’ or want a visual, non-electrical trapping solution, this three-pack serves as replacements or additional coverage for existing setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003csection class=\"product-faq-snippet\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: Do I get the sticky coating with this kit?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: No, the kit contains three deer fly balls and inflation needles; Catch EM’ sticky coating is sold separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: How often should I reapply the adhesive?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: Reapply the sticky coating every 2–3 weeks or after heavy rain for consistent effectiveness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Bug Ball","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56824548917588,"sku":"B08JZFZR6V","price":77.94,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1063\/2652\/4244\/files\/bug-ball-front-view-pack-of-3_5d74a46b-6a24-4f93-be36-801ae61d9311.jpg?v=1786984167","url":"https:\/\/gardenluxe.co.uk\/products\/bug-ball-deer-fly-ball-replacement-kit-pack-of-3-inflatable-pvc-traps-weatherproof-sticky-fly-catchers","provider":"Gardenluxe Uk","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
