Fruit Fly Trap (20 Pack), Double-Sided Yellow Sticky Traps (Indoor & Outdoor), Fruit Fly Traps for Kitchen & Plants, Fruit Fly Killer - Sticky Gnat Trap Indoor Solution, Fungus Gnat Traps

These sticky traps work well. So well it’s crazy the amount of fungus gnats they catch in 24 hours. I cut them in half, attached to a bamboo stake (plant variety label/sign thingy) and scattered them evenly amongst the 100+ potted plants In my greenhouse. I used approx 40 traps. Overnight some were covered with gnats but others just a couple feet away only had 0-10 caught. After a couple weeks of monitoring I’ve decided the plants that had a trap but very few bugs aren’t infested and probably just caught “fly byes”. The pots that had traps that were basically covered in gnats are the pots the gnats are living and multiplying in. I’ll be treating those especially good with water that’s had mosquito bits soaking in. I’ll continue to use the sticky traps but primarily to identify which plants still have the bug problem. These f@%#ers are small, black and quick so it’s super difficult for the untrained eye to see them in black soil, so the traps have saved me tons of time identifying what plant pots are/were infested, and at the same time killed a ton.

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.

The yellow color really attracts these gnats to sticky surface as soon as you place them near plants. It takes several weeks to catch all of them due to different life stages

The entire stack of 20 sheets were stuck inside their ziplock bag and I had to yank it out. The glue must have melted. Each sheet has a strip in the top and bottom that doesn’t get glue but most of them has glue and my fingers are sticky now. Very annoying !

Dealing with fruit flies is no fun, so I thought I'd try a few methods to get rid of them.These DO catch them, but I find they really only work if you leave a light on in one room and have most of them in that room. In our case we leave a light on so our toddler won't be afraid to use the bathroom in the middle of the night, and the two sticky papers we put in the bathroom have by far caught the most. I have them hanging from the shower curtain rod. It does seem to have reduced the number, but I'd recommend combining with the liquid traps which have caught as many. Overall pretty satisfied.

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.

** 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)
