Tabanidae are thought of as having aquatic larval stages, with larvae inhabiting moist or saturated soils around lakes, streams, ponds, and even roadside ditches; however, Wilson (1969) collected several larval specimens of serious pest species from the soil and debris of mostly dry hardwood hammocks in an alluvial forest in Louisiana.

While in the field together they developed some novel collecting techniques for
Tabanidae, one of which involved Pamela driving the vehicle in extra-low ratio while Brian would stalk along at the back and yell--STOP--followed by a crash as he swiped at a tabanid.
Although Diptera was represented by the largest number of species, only three were
Tabanidae. This trap type is intended to be placed in an open, sunny area to heat the black plastic, which serves as an attractant for
Tabanidae and other blood-feeding insects.
