Fly catcher and sticks well.

We have fruit flies. Not gnats, not houseflies. I'm not sure if the company who made this product misidentified fruit flies, but I'm pretty sure they've never seen one, nor was this product ever tested. Short review - this product does NOT draw fruit flies to it. Waste of money, don't buy. Long review - read below. Day one - hung 3 paper traps right where the fruit flies hang out. 4 hours later one fruit fly landed on the edge of the paper. I'm thinking VICTORY! Here they come. Went to check it out and the fly landed on the EDGE of the paper, the ONE part that was not sticky. It flew away as soon as I approached. Not to be outdone, I cut off all of the outside edges so they had no choice but to get stuck if they landed on it. Day two - OMG!! OMG!! OMG!! One fruit fly landed and appears to be stuck. I'll leave it up, maybe some friends will try to rescue it. Day three - the fruit fly is still stuck, but it must not have friends, because it's still all alone. For fun I sprayed some apple cider vinegar onto the paper, thinking maybe they needed a little encouragement. Nada. Days four through 7 - The paper is collecting all sorts of dust and animal hair (how did that even happen, because it's hanging 5' above the floor?) Day eight - took down all of the papers and went back to apple cider vinegar in a jar with plastic wrap secured to the top, and tiny holes in the top just large enough for them to squeeze through.

I was disappointed with this product. It didn’t stick as advertised and kept coming off, making it a waste of time and money. I wouldn’t recommend it.

It’s not that effective for its intended purpose, insects could care less about this. Butttt if you’re afraid of insects, this is a good thing to have around. If there’s a scary spider, just throw or slap this on the spider to pick it up, no need to squish it or fiddle around with a cup. Also works well with some flying insects. Just wave it around and it’ll catch that tiny annoyance that was in your face. Maybe attach this paper to a ruler or something sturdy to remove wind resistance so it’s not so slow with flying insects.

Works good when insect gets on it. Doesn't draw insect to it.

** update: my gnat problem got worse, and now a good amount of them go to the sticky paper. Id say if using indoors for this problem, use more than one. I wish the other end of the papers were hole punched as well so we can cut them in half if we chose too. These papers are huge! Old: Ive used these at my farm job, theyre great. But this will not work for indoor gnats. It, however, could be crafted into a gnat squatter. Because just a little touch to the paper and theyll be stuck forever. But it comes with so many for a job like this. For my purpose it did not serve me, but ill be donating the rest to my farm. Maybe save a few for a future personal garden. (If yours dont serve you too, donate them to your local farm so its at least put to use)

I have a fruit fly problem this summer. I'd had quite a lot of success killing them with the vinegar-and-dish-soap method. But I got tired of my apartment smelling like vinegar and began to grow suspicious that the vinegar was actually *attracting* as many flies as it was killing. So I looked around and I saw these marketed towards fruit flies. They arrive and I break one out, tear off the paper cover. Bright yellow and nice and sticky! Perfect! I find a swarm of fruit flies and set it down smack down in the middle. Then I sit back to watch the fruit fly massacre. What happens instead is they all land....in a perfect little square around the fly paper. Not a single one touches it. That's fine, I think. They're just suspicious. Their time is coming. I go off to do other things and come back to find several fruit flies merrily trotting across they fly "trap." The rest were still hanging out around the perimeter. Fly paper 0; fruit flies 40. The paper is indeed bright yellow. The paper is indeed very sticky. And yet the paper is useless - absolutely useless - against fruit flies. I tried many times, many places. They either avoided it or they walked across it like it was nothing at all.

I’m sorry to say this, but this product didn’t work for me at all. We’ve had fruit flies in our home for the last few weeks, and they have mostly been in our kitchen and bathroom. I had set out bowls of cider vinegar in both rooms and caught 100 or so but a couple of dozen remained. So I ordered these traps, and set one up right by our kitchen trash can. A day later, only 1 fruit fly was stuck to the paper while I could see several fruit flies nearby, usually sitting on the door to our kitchen cabinet. So I moved the paper to the bathroom and hung it on the mirror, where I could see at least 6 fruit flies hanging around. A day later, only 2 fruit flies were stuck to the paper. So I used the only other method that has worked well, which is using a lint roller to squash them when they land. In this way I killed 15+ fruit flies while the paper was virtually empty. It’s too bad this product isn’t effective, it seemed like it would work well.
