YEAR AROUND WE COOK IN THE SLOW COOKER & THIS ALONE, WITH THE BACK DOOR CRACKED OPEN SO OUR SON CAN GO IN & OUT, DRAWS FLIES LIKE CRAZY. BEFORE WE GOT THIS, WE TRIED A NUMBER OF TECHNIQUES TO KILL FLIES & MY HUSBAND WAS STILL STANDING IN THE KITCHEN NEAR OUR BACK DOOR TO THE GARAGE & BACKYARD KILLING AT LEAST 40 FLIES JUST BEFORE DINNER & EVERY YEAR WE MOVE OUR GARBAGE CANS TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THE YARD (90 FEET FROM THE OUTSIDE DOOR, TO PREVENT FLIES. NOTHING PREVENTED THIS NIGHTMARISH SITUATION UNTIL WE BOUGHT THE DYNO TRAP. OUR COOKING INVITED ALL THE FLIES! IN THS HORRIBLE SITUATION, WE FOUND THAT WE COULD NOT GO WITHOUT THIS FLY & MOSQUITO KILLING TRAP! WE HAVE NO MORE MOSQUITOS! THIS TRAP, UNDERNEATH OUR WINDOW IN THE DINING ROOM, NOT EVEN IN OUR KITCHEN, KILLS ALL THE FLIES COMING INTO OUR HOUSE. MY HUSBAND WAS SWATTING SO MANY FLIES UNTIL WE GOT THIS AND IT HAS COMPLETELY STOPPED THE NIGHTMARE. THE D.R. WINDOW DRAWS THE FLIES FROM THE KITCHEN DUE TO THE LIGHT COMING IN THE WINDOW & THIS TRAP IS PLUGGED IN RIGHT UNDER THE WINDOW, SO THE FLIES ARE DRAWN IN BY THE SMELL OF FOOD, BUT QUICKLY END UP AT THE WINDOW & LIGHT OF THE DYNO TRAP, WHERE THEY DIE ! IT HAS COMPLETELY SOLVED THE PROBLEM. I AM A READER SO I READ ALL THE REVIEWS ABOUT THIS ONE & OTHERS BUT THIS ONE LIVES UTO THE FINE REVIEWS! RECOGNIZE: YOU ONLY WANT SOMETHING THAT DRAWS THE FLIES & MOSQUITOES ONCE "IN YOUR HOUSE", YOU DON'T WANT SOMETHING THAT IS GOING TO DRAW THOUSANDS OF FLIES FROM OUTSIDE OF YOUR HOUSE. WE HAVE IT SET UP SO THE FLY OR MOSQUITO ENTERS THROUGH THE 2 DOORS, FIRST COMING IN THROUGH THE GARAGE AND THEN INTO THE KITCHEN, AND THEN, DESPITE THE 4 KITCHEN LIGHTS & FOOD BEING THE ATTRACTION, VERY QUICKLY THESE 2 BUGS ARE ATTRACTED TO THE LIGHT IN THE WINDOW JUST OUTSIDE THE KITCHEN, SO THEY ALL PASS THROUGH THE KITCHEN HEADING STRAIGHT FOR THE WINDOW WITH THE OUTSIDE LIGHT COMING IN & ONCE THERE, ON THE WINDOW THEY GO BELOW THE WINDOW TO THE PURPLE PINK LIGHT, TOUCH THE STICKY STRIP INSIDE & DIE AND THEY NEVER MAKE IT TO THE FRONT HALL OR LIVING ROOM BECAUSE THEY DIE AT THE ENTRANCE TO THE DINING ROOM FROM THE KITCHEN. THIS TURNED OUT TO BE THE PERFECT SET UP FOR PREVENTING THE FLIES FROM STAYING IN THE KITCHEN BUT NOT GOING BEYOND THE WINDOW IN THE DINING ROOM & INTO THE REST OF THE HOUSE. iT IS AMAZING HOW IT CAN ATTRACT THE BUGS ALMOST IMMEDIATELY WHEN THEY ENTER THE KITCHEN THROUGH 2 BACK DOORS, EXIT THE KITCHEN ABOUT 2 OR 3 FEET, GET ATTRACTED TO THE WINDOW & THE DYNO TRAP LIGHT & NEVER MAKE IT OUT OF THAT AREA!! WHAT A RELIEF! IT'S ABSOLUTELY AMAZING THAT THIS WAS ALL WE NEEDED TO BE MOSQUITO & FLY-FREE THROUGHOUT THE REST OF THE HOUSE & INCREDIBLE THAT IT MOVES THE FLIES OUT OF THE KITCHEN DURING DINNER COOKING & TO THE DYNO TRAP UNDER THE WINDOW WHERE THEY DIE & THE PROBLEM IS OVER. THANK GOODNESS I CHOSE THE RIGHT ONE TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM! HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION POSSIBLE FOR THIS INCREDIBLE DEVICE! I THINK YOU WILL EXPERIENCE THE SAME STUNNING RESULT AND THE RELIEIF!!

While fighting a pesky drain gnat / drain fly infestation a few months ago, I had already set out glasses of a apple cider vinegar/water/dish soap solution (covered with punctured cling wrap) near all of our main drains. While they were catching and drowning their fair share of flies, I ordered these reinforcements to completely end the infestation as quickly as possible! In order, I purchased: 1. Harris Fruit Fly Drain Treatment Gel (0.5/5) 2. Protecker Fruit Fly Traps (1/5) 3. AllRoad Window Fly Traps (4/5) 4. Dynatrap DT3019-1003P Flylight (5/5) In the hopes of helping those combating a similar infestation decide what to purchase, I will post this complete review+pictures on each product page, with the reviews listed as numbered above. 1. Harris Fruit Fly Drain Treatment Gel (0.5/5): This was my first purchase, and second most-expensive only to the Dynatrap light. Now, it's possible that it may 'suffocate' the eggs/larvae in drains, but given its relatively-thin viscosity, I kind of doubt even this (especially if used in drains that will be utilized at all during the treatment period instead of sealed over with cling wrap.) I can say that (other than the aforementioned homemade traps,) I was using this for about a week before getting the other solutions, and noticed no significant effect. As an experiment, I even set out a small cup of the gel, and flies flew into and drowned in it... Then I left the container itself open by my bathroom sink, and the flies just saw another drain to fly into (see picture!) The only reason this even warrants half of a star, in my experience, is that it does smell pleasant. 2. Protecker Fruit Fly Traps (1/5, not pictured): I ordered the set of 2. These are literally just cuter, less-stabile versions of the homemade traps I had already set out. They do come with a small vial of what I assume is apple cider vinegar, but certainly not enough to add a substantial amount to the traps, so I just made the normal solution and then distributed the vial contents. I was hoping that the addition of adhesive 'traps' above the liquid trap would catch passersby, but this hope was in vain-- neither adhesive trap caught a single fly! And, compared with their homemade counterparts, these did not catch nearly as many flies (I assume the built-in holes are bored too widely, so the flies could check the liquid out, then easily escape.) I made the mistake of setting one on a ledge in a high-traffic area, and- being the kind of neurodivergent klutz who often bumps into things as I pass by- knocked it over a couple of times, causing it to pop open at the 'seam' and spill the vinegar solution, creating a stinky mess. I don't fault the product for this, but it's worth noting as a possible drawback if you are also cluttered'n'klutzy. Unfortunately I didn't get any pictures before throwing both away as soon as the infestation was over with, but between the two I'd say they caught 10 flies maximum- none on the stickers- so there's not much to show, anyway. 3. AllRoad Window Fly Traps (4/5): I received these soon after receiving the Protecker traps, and while the Protecker traps had yet to catch a single fly, these window traps caught several within a couple of hours of installing them on my bathroom window. If you're on a budget and find yourself in this gnat-sy predictament, or if you just want multiple lines of defense like me, these are the way to go. The one drawback is that the 'window cling' line of adhesive is just as strong as the trap side-- and it is *strong.* Removing them did leave adhesive residue on my window, however I did leave them there for a couple of months beyond what was necessary, and a more-conscientious person removing them after a shorter time span may find this to be a non-issue. I'm sure Goo-Gone will take care of it... I'll get around to trying, eventually. 4. Dynatrap DT3019-1003P Flylight (5/5): Sure, this is the most pricey solution, but it gets a perfect rating for a few reasons: it is extremely effective, it has no reasonable drawbacks, and it is a device I'll be able to use beyond the infestation I got it for (can't wait 'til porch-sitting weather rolls back around to see how mosquitoes fare against it!) Installation was a snap, and within seconds of plugging it in, I watched a gnat fly right into the adhesive trap. I'm generally a bleeding heart-level animal lover (I even take the odd stinkbug/cricket/spider I find in my house outside and get sad when others smoosh them!) but let me tell you, seeing that gnat fly to its doom filled me with GLEE. In conclusion, I'd totally avoid the first two products unless you're just interested in conducting your own experiment. Instead, I'd recommend making a few homemade traps, and supplementing them with the window stickers and/or Dynatrap light. (Search for a 'recipe' online for the best ratio of water:vinegar:soap in the homemade traps, and don't forget to top them with carefully-punctured cling wrap; this will ensure more flies drown than escape.)

Funciona muy bien tanto para interior como para exterior. Atrapa muchas moscas de fruta, moscas y algunos mosquitos. Para mosquitos, yo les recomiendo complementarla con DynaTrap DT150-TUN u otra del estilo.

eliminates lots of flying insects in the house

It doesn't even catch a single mosquito. I have tried leaving it running 2 days and 3 nights and tried shifting in different areas of the room. Have to return since its useless.

Not suitable for UAE oo UK market. Item doesn't have UK/UAE plug and when used with a converter it started to smoke after 2h.

Atrapa montones de insectos. Es muy económica en comparación con otros instrumentos caros que no funcionan
