Catchmaster Reusable Outdoor Fly Trap, 3 Hanging Blue Jars with Bait

Zero flies in house since I put these up on property

These are amazing. I shared 1 picture with the label removed so you can see how many flies it has captured over a 3 week time span. This fly trap is not far away from the back patio. I have 2 fly traps on that tree. The second picture is out by our live stock pens. Its not as easy to see, but it also highly effective. I will warn you they do have an unpleasant smell - which is why they work so well !!!!! When I change these out I pour the contents of the catch into a plastic grocery bag and then put the grocery bag into another grocer bag, then into a garbage bag and then into the garbage to prevent the smell from spreading. The amount of flies caught is so gross!! That's what I paid for. I do live in a very dry desert environment and I do add water through out the weeks as the water evaporates so fast. Easy to do.

Jars are a big size. Comes with everything you need to install it in the yard. The only thing I hate about this type of fly traps is the smell. The smell of the bait when you add water and then the smell of nasty dead flies on top of that as it fills up. I tried using this dry with quick strike fly bait so I didnt have to deal with the water stank, but it's too enclosed. So, I ended up putting a little water in there to pull them in and it works. I have yet to empty it, but I expect it to be pretty gross. However, it's gotta be a lot better than trying to dispose of the plastic bag versions when they're full. Trying to dispose of those full bags of water and dead flies is daunting.

** I would like to add that while they are technically reusable I would recommend NOT reusing them after a certain time. I emptied one from last season and refilled it. The jar is working perfectly fine, and continues to catch flies. However the dead fly detritus that I emptied into a plastic bag and then tossed in my trash can has become a swarm of fly larvae. Hundreds of little worms hatched with in a day of rustling up and disturbing the trap. So either learn from my mistake and if you intend to reuse the jar, empty it and refill promptly. ** This thing is great and disgusting at the same time. We live downtown and have dogs so we get a ton of flies in our yard, and this this is great. I got this jar one and the bait replacements and the jar gets filled up with flies in a month. The smell is awful... something between dog poo and death, but the flies go straight to it. To change the bait I put on disposable plastic gloves and dump the contents into a plastic ziplock bag and zip it up and throw it away on garbage day, gloves and all. I also keep it in the furthest corner of my yard which keeps the smell from being intrusive.

Easy to use-- open lid and fill with water. Unwrap wire to hang. Done. Smell is not as detectable as other brands - so you can keep the trap closer to where you are sitting. Clearly works really well. The jar is wrapped with a plastic wrap - I removeded off one bottle thinking it may be more asthetic without the advertising wrapper. Not the case- jar is clear and all you see is mucky yellow water with dead flies floating- leave the wrapper on. Like the fact this jar is reusable and higher quality plastic.
