Zero In Ready Baited Disposable Fly Trap - Single-Use Water-Activated Fly Catcher - 4-Week Protection, Easy Setup & Disposal with Hang-Tab - Attracts Flies Up to 10 Metres

WOW! This was one of those purchases where I wasn't convinced it would work but was desperate enough to give it a try and I'm not disappointed! Follow the instructions which are very straightforward - just unscrew and pop out the lid, fill with the specified amount of tap water, hang it up and watch with delight as all the flies trap themselves and sink to slow and hopefully agonising death. Very satisfying. Note: Give it a chance to work. You need to hang it near to but not too close to the source of the problem. For me, I find that in warm weather the flies like my kitchen and my rubbish bin outside the house which ends up with maggots. I hang this about 3 meters from the back kitchen door and that is also probably a similar distance to the wheelie bin. It says put in a bright sunny spot which I did. First few days seemed to be pointless but then once the putrid liquid started to give off its aroma, the flies have been coming thick and fast (away from my kitchen and bin) and into the trap. It's been hanging a few weeks now and seems to perform better with each passing day and (alarmingly?) is already about an inch deep of dead flies! BE WARNED....this smells like something that has died and is decomposing. When the wind catches it the stink is quite repulsive so you'll want this far away from areas you use a lot. Well worth buying if, like me, you loathe anything that pukes on your food after having a walk on some dog poo before sucking it back up through a straw.....

I put this trap on the fence last August bank holiday after trying lots of different traps etc. It’s about 6feet from the ground & about the same from the utility door. we get quite a few flies from the dog kennels next door on the other side of the fence & they’re always in the kitchen & utility in the warm weather. I put about 3 inches of water in it, gave it a bit of a shake & left it to do its thing. I didn’t notice any flies for the first few days & the smell didn’t seem very strong however after about a week it started attracting flies & has gone from strength to strength since & is still catching a lot in March!! I’ve had to top the water up regularly in hot weather but I just add about an inch each time. It’s still working really well, especially during this warm spell ( it’s on a west facing fence & once the sun hits it the flies head straight for it) As you can see from the photos it’s getting a bit full so I’ve just order a couple more for myself & family members who’ve been impressed with it. I hope they last as long as this one because the info says they last about 4 weeks. I’d deffo recommend these if you’re troubled with flies, it does seem to work better once the sun warms it up a bit so bear that in mind when you put it up.

Put under the patio which is a magnet for flies in the summer. Only used one of them as you can top the mix up as it evaporates. Certainly catches flies. Only gripe is, I could never have it free standing as the flies escape. Has to be hung to work

If I could give it zero stars I would. I've had this thing up for almost 5 days now with Zero flies caught in it. It says flies cannot escape... Well on the third day things looked promising. 2 flies caught (or so I thought) and 2 casually strolling round the top looking to dive right in.... Nope they buzzed off and the 2 that we 're inside the thing escaped by the following morning too presumably after having their fill of whatever the revolting stuff in it is. Which to add insult to injury (not to any flies I might add) the smell is vile!!! There's a tea bag type thing in the bottom that disintegrates after you add water creating what can only be described as an open bin with rancid, putrefying, meat smell oh no sorry “Water activated bait – flies love it” that radiates around its immediate vicinity “10 m radius” which may be the only thing that’s true in their advert. Problem is I don’t want the thing 10 metres away from the house because the flies are already in the fricking house and believe me you would not want this in your house. Just to inform the animal lovers among you there were no flies hurt in the writing of this review…. Or by the trap either!!!!

These are absolutely great PROVIDED you need a fly trap for outside use. We use ours near a chicken coop, and one near our bin store. If you have a few flies coming into your house occasionally, a conservatory which is a fly haven, or pet food that attracts maggots, DO NOT even consider this! It works by attracting flies to the smell of the decomposing bait sachet, which drown and in turn rot, adding to the attractive power. It needs the warmth of the sun and gentle breeze to work at full efficiency. The smell is initially mild (and barely noticeable), but it absolutely reeks after a few weeks. You just open and add water. If the weather is very hot, it may need topping up with water. By the time the trap is full (for us, about 4 weeks/a month), you just clip the lid down, double bag it, and throw it away. There are models that are reusable/refillable but I like the convenience of these. I know it is not very green, but I don't want to deal with a bottle of putrid, dead flies!

Particulièrement efficace. Juste à éloigner de 4_5 mètres de la maison. Dégage une odeur un peu forte, et surtout attiré tellement les mouches que si vous le positionnez trop près d e votre habitation vous les voyez voler autour par la fenêtre. J'en ai acheter 2, positionner 1 de chaque côté de la maison, et en quelques jours plus une mouche à l'horizon. Très bon produit

Hat tatsächlich jede Menge Fliegen gefangen. Dauert rund 4 Tage bis es in der Sonne so richtig anziehend wird. Dann riecht es aber auch in der Windrichtung und ich habs weiter weg von der Terasse aufstellen müssen. Es empfehlt sich es aufzuhängen, damit der Wind es nicht umweht. In praller Sonne habe ich ca. einmal die Woche Wasser nachgegossen. Nach 2 Monaten war der Behälter voll mit toten Fliegen.

Ich habe mehrere verschiedene Fliegenfallen im Einsatz und diese Falle hat mit Abstand am wenigsten Fliegen gefangen - nämlich gar keine. Getestet im Sommer 2017. An dem Standort haben zuvor andere Fallen erfolgreich Fliegen angelockt, aber bei dieser habe ich keine Wirkung feststellen können. Außerdem ist negativ, dass man die Falle nicht ausleeren kann. Man soll sie komplett gefüllt entsorgen. Das gibt eine ziemliche Sauerei, wenn das Plastik bricht und der stinkende Inhalt sich entleert. Da kann man fast von Glück sprechen, dass sie nicht einmal ansatzweise so stinkt, wie andere Fallen - womit sie auch nicht bei Fliegen wirkt... Eine Wiederverwendung mit einem Nachfüllpack ist leider auch ausgeschlossen, womit man unweigerlich unnötigen Plastikmüll produziert. Positiv ist, dass die Aufhängung stabil ist und der Deckel fest sitzt. Dadurch kann sich der Behälter beim Aufhängen nicht ungewollt lösen. (Ja, das ist mir schon bei einer anderen Falle passiert und ich stand genau unter der Falle...) Der Preis ist verlockend für Käufer, aber weitere (ver-) lockende Wirkungen für Fliegen konnte ich leider nicht feststellen.
