FARNAM 3004323 2-Pack EZ Fly Trap, 12-Ounce,Yellow

This thing works .... had flies around the outdoor cat bowls and put one of these near it. It caught several flies in a couple of weeks and a lot of gnats, tiny sweat bees , flying ants, wasp, mosquitos and unfortunately a ladybug and some other beneficial bugs. It is a huge glue trap is really what it is and yes it works. I would not however hang it near where you may get hummingbirds because it can catch them too. The good thing about this over the older style pull down glue straps is you can sit it on a table or hang it. The little tray on the bottom made a great place to place a couple pieces of cat food to draw flies to it.

Bought four of these to place around our backyard. We have two dogs and 6 backyard chickens so we get a fair amount of flies even keeping the yard cleaned up daily. We have used a number of different fly "traps" from stinky to sticky and even tried fly "predators," but somehow the shape and color of these is far more effective than anything else we've tried. I used arched wrought iron basket hangers to hang them around the yard. One reviewer recommended making black dots on them with a marker to attract flies and we tried one with and one without initially. The reviewer was right, the dots attract more flies! So we put random black dots on all of them and they are by far the most effective fly control we have ever had. These things are loaded with flies! They also seem to attract yellow jackets, which is a bonus. We have a lot of honey bees in our yard and I was worried they would get caught, but so far only one honey bee met his fate, otherwise they are loaded with flies, gnats and yellow jackets. We are so pleased with the effectiveness that we intend to buy these every summer.

Used these for trapping fruit flies in my kitchen. They don’t smell so they’re perfect for using indoors. I hung them up with a chain above my kitchen table and placed another one on the counter near the opening of my trash can.Didn’t attract any fruit flies until I put some bait in the bottom: basically, I placed a small piece of fruit in the bottom part of one of the openings. After 24h, caught 25-30 flies.If you have the black biting flies, may be a good idea to place another type of bait there, like a piece of meat or coldcuts.When you’re done: Just make sure to spray it down with insecticide outside (away from kids/pets) and bag it up securely (no holes) before putting it in the big trash bin outside, otherwise the larva/eggs can grow on the bait (piece of fruit in this case) and then you’re back to square one with tons of flies.

We raise goats and this year the fly population was just out of control! After tolerating those horrible smelly traps for years, I decided to give these a try.We used something similar with great success, but the company stopped making the long, tube design for some reason so we switched to these.If you place them in the right spot, they work well. They need to be in a spot where they get sun and low enough to where the flies will land on them.One very helpful thing I noticed is that the other long, tube type traps had graphics of flies printed on them which I thought was funny at first then noticed that they filled up fast. I guess flies are social insects that like to go where their kind is already gathering!I decided to experiment with these and and on one of the traps I took a black sharpie and put random black dots the size of flies all over the sticky surface and left the other trap the way it came from the factory. Sure enough, even though both traps were in the same spot, the one with the black dots attracted about 50% more flies!!Since I'd ordered 3 sets of these, I went ahead and "decorated" the rest of them to help them be more effective :)The only complaint about these I have is the cost. They seem expensive for what you get and how quickly they fill up and need to be replaced.They say you can rinse them off and reuse them but...ugh...it's gross and it didn't work to get the dead flies off.I've tried about 5 different types of the sticky traps and these seem to be the most effective.Hope this was helpful info for those shopping for products to help banish the bugs! :)

This is a must for enjoying summer outdoors. No more bugs or flys buzzing about to ruin your day. So easy to use. Just open box and hang. Effective for months.

Didn’t catch any flies- but somehow a bird got stuck and lost a number of feathers. Apparently the bird got free.

We have many large indoor plants and I think the tiny gnat like flies breed in the soil.Last year we were inundated with this horrid little creatures in the house. They don't just eat the plants but get in your mouth and seem to like my hair - which is almost white and so shines in artificial light.I have been using these near the windows where the plants are and within a very short time the traps were covered in the tiny black flies. (They don't look as bad as some fly traps)I have also used the "Bayer Insect control plus fertilizer" plant spikes together with these - using the correct number for each plant pot - and I am happy to say we are almost completely 'fly free'I have not used these outdoors.One other thing. Even flies seem to have some intelligence so it takes a while for them to get used to the traps - to fly onto them and get caught. So it is best not to move them about too much.

I use it around the house outside and at the barnThey are terrific
