For a couple of years this fly trap worked extremely well, trapping thousands of flies. The attractant came in a paper packet, was green and stayed green for a long time. The attractant now comes in a plastic packet, starts off green then turns red and doesn't attract any flies at all. Something has changed with the attractant, It doesn't even smell bad like the other stuff. $13 is a steep price to pay for something that doesn't work.

From the first day I hung this out under the verandah it sucked them in so to speak.
Tried all the hanging sticky baits to no avail and decided to look here for some good ol' alternative experiences.

Now we can prepare the dog food and not have the blowies hangin' around the back door trying to get in at their first opportunity, obviously the attractant is more pleasing to them than the smell of cooking meat.

The only time I get a whiff of it is when I take it down to replenish the bait or top up the water when it evaporates a little.

It's good to buy something for a change that works well and exceeds your expectations.

Living in central Queensland means flies are an unavoidable part of our life, winter or summer. Outdoor entertaining in summer is often difficult because of the volume and insistence of the flies. My father made a homemade trap years ago which I remembered reduced the volume significantly - so I grabbed two traps when I saw them. Wow. They're due to be emptied for the second time in 1.5 weeks and are Full almost to the top. Disgusting to empty but wonderful to see what's been captured . A disposable bottom would be wonderful and make emptying easier - that's my only suggestion. Thank you!

It will attract and capture as many flies as it can fit inside, however the smell is unbearable. Even my neighbour complained about it.

In terms if catching flies its wonderfull, but the smell we had it out for 5 days, full of flies but after searching around for a dead animal we realised the smell came from the trap! Conclusion it traps the flies but the overpowering smell is too hard to deal with

I purchased this product over the 2014 Christmas period - it definitly shows you how many flies are lurking around but in regards to trying to keep the flies from sitting on you ( I put mine underneath our covered back porch) it doesn't work - Australian flies have and will always be the worst pests ever ! the only non sitting fly solution I've found so far are the mortein outdoor automatic sprayers - I really wished this product had worked better though :(

I had this trap sitting on my table and a fly got straight onto my food. had it outside and the flies inside. as far as I am concerned I am pleased I won this and didn't use my money

Had it up & working within 3 minutes of it arriving.checked trap after adding attractant & water had first fly trapped within 5 mins.now have a dozen inside. Just ordered 2 more. Love it

Juanuary 5th 2016 Update: Still s effective as every.they W O R K
Well it's warming up in Far Nth QLD & the flies were getting painful again so ordered a heap of fly attractant refills within 2 days the traps started filling up. Amazes.me how many flies they get. Have 2 traps one in front yard hanging of a palm tree the other in backyard about 5 metres away from rear deck. The deck and kutch window screens are clear of bloeies .,, My 6 cats are happier, less flieshanging around their feed.bowls. Only way to go. They D O WORK SO BLOODY WELL(;-)))

We live in the wheatbelt in WA on a farm and we had an awful time with flies, I could not cook anything at all until the sun went down.
We bought two of these enviro traps and we have not had a fly trying to get into the house since, they are filling so fast and just working beyond all belief that we are also going to get a few more and keep them going all year round, never know we might end up doing the whole state a favor.... Everyone should use them.

We have a fly problem at Mission Beach, Qld so thought we'd give your fly traps a go. OMG! within 30 minutes we had more then an inch of flies in the liquid and more swarming in. So off to our daughters house in Weipa, Qld, took 2 fly traps with us (we knew the flys were bad their) 7 days later the traps have only an inch to go and not another fly can fit in. We are so happy with the traps that we've taken photos and sent to heaps of our friends that have fly problems. You definitely have 2 very, very happy customers.
They worked immediately and inexpensive
The smell, which we can handle

The product is easy to set up, works perfectly and low maintenance.
Prior to installing this outside the back door under the verandah, in warm windy weather we were pestered by flies, although there was no food nearby. We would not be without it now,
Efficient, not expensive
