About the Practice
Detail:

Ways to prevent Ujifly attack on silkwoms using net curtains. Farmers use net curtains to prevent Ujifly attack on silkwoms. Some farmers from Jeevargitaluka in Gulbarga District in Karnataka keep some worms at the window, so the fly attacks them and do not enter the rear hall. Alternatively some farmers in Kolar District collect spiders' webs, that are formed around thorny bushes, and tie them at the windows so that the flies get caught in the web. Use net curtains, keep some worms at the window or collect spiders' webs and tie at the windows.
