Have been a customer for over ten years. One year I didn't get any and was that ever a mistake. The fly predators are not only a value in themselves but also cut back on use of chemicals around the house and barn! Try them… you won't be disappointed! My horses thank me every year
I have been ordering fly predators for years. I noticed in 2022 1/4 didn't hatch. I contacted Spalding labs and got no help. I Then ordered in 2023 and noticed 1/2 of the fly predators did Not hatch. Again, I spoke to someone from Spalding labs. I was Told I probably wasn't dispersing them right. This was far from The truth. Me and my wife decided it was not worth the cost of The fly predators if they didn't work, and Spalding labs would Not resolve the issues. We decided to end our relationship with Spalding labs. On 6/18/2024 I received a voice mail from Lanna With Spalding labs reaching out because they noticed I/we Haven't ordered yet and wanted to help. She noted that they Had staffing issues. They also had customer service issues for Sure. I wrote them this morning. As typical, they didn't answer Me. It's a shame that they don't care. Reviewing their facebook Page reviews, it appears this is a common problem with them. The used to be good, now they are not and won't resolve Issues with customers. https://www.facebook.com/SpaldingLabs/reviews BBB complaints filed in Nevada and California
I have ordered fly predators from several companies over the years and Spalding is the absolute WORST company I have ordered from. Their first shipment was dead, no signs of life after two weeks, I called to let them know that, they said they'd send a comp shipment pronto, they never shipped it, they admitted it had not shipped when I called them the next month. That next month's shipment also never arrived. We had flies all over the place. I asked each call that someone in the company contact me within 24 hours to let me know they were shipping. They NEVER responded. I cancelled the whole year's subscription and am demanding a refund of the dead early shipments I already paid them. They don't care how they treat their customers and they show utmost disrespect to their customers by refusing to respond to a paying customer when the order failed over and over again.

A year and a half ago our area was hit with Pidgeon fever. A highly contagious illness which requires very strict quarantine and lengthy health care. I decided to try "Fly Predators" as I did not want to go through this again and Flys are how this disease spreads. I was able to get most of y i my neighbors to also purchase "Fly Preditors. We were almost completely Fly free in our neighborhood. Even though Pidgeon fever continued to ravage the neighborhoods surrounding us none of our horses in our neighborhood contracted it again. THANK YOU Spalding Labs.

We have been using the Spalding Labs fly predators for years and would not want to be without. The product quality, customer service and ordering process are all fabulous!
No one gets more excited about spring, summer, and fall than horse people, and everyone dreads "fly season!" I no longer dread fly season thanks to Spalding Labs Fly Predators. I've been a customer since 2015 and cannot even imagine life around the barn and pastures without the fly predators.
I have three equines and prepare for fly season in four ways: #1 Order fly predators early. #2 manage my manure/compost pile. #3 spread the manure in the pastures regularly. #4 stock up on fly spray and fly ointment.
One of my geldings has fly bite allergies and Spalding Labs Fly Predators have made a HUGE difference in managing his allergies.
As a lifelong horse owner, I have the mindset that we are in a constant state of learning - about nutrition, husbandry, riding, hoof care, etc, and keeping the barn virtually fly-free is a top priority! I want my horses to be comfortable year-round, not just when it's time for fly spray!
I have been satisfied every year with these predators and will continue to be a loyal customer for years to come!
Tip for consumers:
Excellent product and customer service is top shelf!

Our foundation Appaloosas come from very hardy stock but the flies on our Southwestern Idaho ranch were driving them nuts. We practiced good manure-handling, hung fly-bait bags everywhere and sprayed our babies top to bottom. But it was getting unmanageable.
Thank goodness we found fly predators! What a savior. Cut our fly population significantly the rest of that first season we used them and we powered up for the next season early.
The results have been amazing. Our farrier was amazed the next summer as he was fly-free while trimming our small herd. Other ranches he worked were miserable with heavy flies.
Now fly predators might not get rid of every single fly - impossible on a horse ranch. But they have made it possible for our horses and humans to enjoy the summer rather than battling nasty fly infestations.
And it's not JUST the fly predators! Bye bye odor gets rid of ammonia smell naturally and quickly.
That's another thing I like about Spalding Labs their approach to ranch life is natural, good for the environment and good for our horses and humans. We don't have to worry about a buildup of pesticides on them or us.
Can't say enough about Spalding Labs and their fly predators, we will never go a season without them again!
Tip for consumers:
Setting up a consistent schedule through spring and summer ensures that you get predators in a consistent fashion and that is what’s necessary to stay ahead of the pest population.

We love this natural solution to our fly problem. Our house is not too far from our pasture and barns, yet we had no fly problem to speak of.
Having used other companies, Spaulding fly predators did the best job by far. Deliveries came on schedule.
