About this deal

The trap is simple to use and attracts a variety of insects, such as fruit flies, fungus gnats, houseflies, and even clothes moths, thanks to its bright yellow color. Whether it is a few fruit flies that are crawling in amongst your plants or a swarm that is hovering over your fruit bowl on your living room table, fruit flies can make your life a misery. Thanks to its compact size (just smaller than a Macintosh apple), you can place it anywhere fruit flies are an issue, including kitchens and bathrooms.

I am going to use blue cups hanging like a mobile so they move and the color and motion attract the flies.While you can also use yellow sticky traps outdoors, in orchards for example, there is a risk that the traps will catch beneficial insects alongside the destructive pests. The desire to breed in insects is strong, and flies will be lured into the sticky trap as long as there is still glue for them to get stuck on.

The apple cider vinegar will lure fruit flies into the trap, while the double layers of foil will prevent them from getting out.

The sweet liquid inside the apple is fast-acting and lasts for 30 days, and the cute little apple design makes this trap an unobtrusive way of trapping and eliminating fruit flies and it can be placed anywhere inside your home, inside a fruit bowl, or out your patio or verandah. When you bring produce home, be sure to wash it immediately to get rid of any existing bugs before storing it. The only downside of these types of traps is that they cannot be used in areas where food is prepared and you can only use them in rooms where people are not present for extended periods of time.

That’s a big deal when you consider that you may be placing them in close proximity to food, and also if you have pets or small children. Since fruit flies feed on decaying matter, fruits and vegetables, garbage cans, recycling bins, and compost containers are often the source of infestation.Given that you’ll need to replace the glue card every 21 days or sooner if full, pending your infestation, the cost of refilling the trap can add up over time. Sticky, pheromone-laden traps are extremely successful,” says Tom Olschewske of Arrow Exterminators. Plant strong-smelling herbs like mint, basil, or lavender in your garden or pots on your window sill. inches on each side and just two inches tall, the traps’ compact size allows for placement just about anywhere. This is why some insects are attracted to the colour yellow, and it is precisely this attraction that yellow sticky insect traps make use of.

When a glue board fills up with fruit flies, mosquitoes, gnats, moths, or other small flying insects, it can be replaced with a new glue board, so you can reuse the fruit fly trap as long as the UV light and fan have power. You can, for instance, use yellow sticky traps for detecting fungus gnats, which can be a nuisance in our homes. Therefore, the quicker you remove the eggs and pupae stage, the quicker you can stop the infestation in its tracks. I checked back in with each method on Friday afternoon to evaluate how many fruit flies they had each dispatched to its eternal rest.Besides, the real damage is often caused by the insect larvae that live in the soil which the traps simply do not catch. It can take a few weeks to eradicate the problem entirely — hire a professional if you can’t find the source.
