Objective of research: To study the abundance of adult of flies and their larvae in a pig farm in the fall two weeks before the end of the production cycle. Materials and methods: The abundance of adult flies and their larvae was investigated in September - October 2015 at the pig farm "Kuznetsovsky" of Moscow region in two sow houses and one pigsty for weaned piglets two weeks before the end of the production cycle. To calculate the number of adult flies, we have placed in each selected pigsty the flytraps (sticky tapes) "Mukholov-Proshka" produced in St. Petersburg. The trap has an adhesive base containing rosin, rubber and mineral oil. Traps were placed at 1 and 2 m from the floor, six traps in each room.
