How Quikstrike Fly Strips Work
Nuisance flies are drawn to the strip by a triple-action attractant. The active ingredient is contained in a sugar-based matrix that flies find irresistible.
After flies locate the device, they explore the surface, then begin feeding. The active ingredient, nithiazine, enhances the fly's nerve functions, causing uncontrolled movement. Flies die within seconds after they begin feeding.
To help QuikStrike work its best, keep these tips in mind:
- QuikStrike strips can be placed in any position, but vertical placement is best. When attaching to a vertical surface, use heavy-duty tape or Hercules Putty™ to facilitate placement.
- When possible, expose both sides of the strip to flies. You can also place QuikStrike with only one side exposed.
- Try to place QuikStrike in protected areas, since moisture and sunlight can reduce the residual length. To create a protected location, hang the strip inside a tall, inverted, five-gallon bucket with three sides removed.
- Place QuikStrike near the ground where flies feed. Placement higher than three feet is not recommended, since flies at this level are resting, not feeding.
- QuikStrike works best in medium-to-high fly populations. In low populations, it might appear as though flies are not being controlled. In fact, it may only be taking longer due to alternative food supplies.

Tips for Placement of QuickStrike Traps:
1. For optimum results, place the station low to the ground where flies actively forage.
2. Bait stations placed in rafters or areas higher than 4 feet will not be as effective. Place the bait station on a stationary object.
3. Flies seen at higher locations are resting and not actively seeking food.
4. Do not allow the bait station to blow in the wind, as flies will not land on moving objects. Stations are most effective when placed on flat surfaces.
5. QuikStrike should be protected from moisture and direct sunlight, when possible. Excessive moisture will reduce the residual life of QuikStrike.
6. QuikStrike can be attached to dumpsters, refuse bins, garbage chutes, poles, feed bunks, walls, fences, and other surfaces out of the reach of children and animals.
How to use QuikStrike Fly Traps:
In enclosed structures or sites with low to moderate house fly populations, use 1 strip per 300 ft2. In open structures or sites with high house fly populations, use 1 strip per 100-150 ft2. Ventilation will not diminish QuikStrike effectiveness since it works by fly feeding action.
1. Remove the QuikStrike strip from the protective pouch. Handle by grasping corner tabs.
2. This product contains 1 attractant container on the fly bait station. Crush the attractant container at time of application. (You may use a hammer to crush attractant vial) Replace attractant container in plastic clip. NOTE: This attractant has a strong odor. Wear gloves to protect your hands as the attractant is extremely hard to wash off.
3. For best results, hang or affix device close to fly forage areas out of reach of children and animals. Place strip close to the ground in areas that are inaccessible to children and animals. Avoid placement of strip in locations higher than 4 feet above the ground.
4. Do not place where daily activity will get strips wet.
5. Replace when effectiveness diminishes.
