How to Use FlyBye
Shake Vigorously
Botanical oils naturally separate. Give the bottle a good shake before every use to remix the formula.
Set Nozzle to Stream
Twist the nozzle to the STREAM setting for direct, targeted coverage. Do not spray into the wind.
Saturate the Source
SOAK maggots, trash can lids, rims, and dog waste directly — don’t just mist. Do not spray on grass.
Reapply as Needed
Maggots can be relentless. Reapply if they are moving after 2 hours, after rain or trash day, or if you see flies gather.
Quick Tactical Tips
Spray Lids & Rims First
Tap to learn moreSpray using the STREAM setting
Flies land and feed on the edges before going inside. Hit the lid, rim, and handle first — that’s where the action is.
Treat Dog Waste Directly

Waste is a prime breeding site. Saturate it directly to keep flies away for hours. DO NOT SPRAY ON GRASS.
Reapply in Extreme Heat

Heat speeds up fly activity and breaks down treatment faster. In a heat wave, reapply more often to stay ahead.

FlyBye treats the surface; FlyBell traps what’s drawn in. Together they cover both halves of the problem.
Spray at Dusk

Flies settle as the day cools. Treating in the evening reaches them when they’re less active and about to lay.
Saturate, Don’t Mist

A light mist sits on the surface. A heavy soak penetrates to where larvae actually live and feed.
Mind the Wind

Spray with the breeze at your back so coverage lands on target instead of drifting off the surface.

Consistent treatment prevents outbreaks. A routine beats scrambling once maggots have already shown up.
