ABSTRACT:
A fly attractant composition includes a quantity of poultry protein wherein the poultry protein includes a quantity of at lesat one protein digestive microorganism capable of digesting the protein. This microorganism can either be native to the protein or it can be added as an inoculum. Further the composition contains a quantity of a carbohydrate which is capable of being fermented to yield carbon dioxide as a fermentation product. Additionally the composition contains a quantity of at least one carbohydrate fermentation microorganism which is capable of fermenting the carbohydrate to release carbon dioxide. When water is added to the fly attractant composition to form a fly lure, the carbon dioxide from the fermenting carbohydrate drives off odors from the ingredients which attracts flies to the lure.
