Ready-Baited Outdoor Fly Trap

I have now had a couple of these fly traps out in my garden since 22nd June 2025. The fly trap works very well, and catches loads of flies. I have noticed that there have been far less flies coming into my house this summer. The fly traps are easy to set up. Simply twist top, and add water to just over half full. Hang the fly trap up on a tree branch or post about 10 meters from your house, and make sure it’s high up enough so pets cannot get to the fly trap. Secure with extra string or cable ties if needed. I recommend hanging at least two fly traps if you have a large garden. I put one in my front garden, and another in my back garden and this seems to work well. The fly traps can last a few weeks. Mine are still catching flies. Top up with some water if this gets low as the water helps the flies to drown. After a few days of being up, there is a smell from the traps as the dead flies start to rot in the trap. This smell attracts more flies. You only get a whiff of the smell once you are about 1-2 meters away from the trap. Be mindful of your neighbours and keep the fly traps away from their houses and boundaries to avoid them experiencing any smell. For disposing these once full, simply remove fly trap, close the lid down, seal the trap in a black bin bag and put in your refuse bin.

Returning customer for these fly traps. It says you need to wait 24 hours for them to start working and to have them in a sunny location, two of mine are not located in a sunny position and they are still working amazingly. Definitely gets rid of the pesky flies. Really easy to use, would defo recommend.

This is really effective, catches so many flies, but no bees. Totally gross (in a great way)s 10/10!

Take a few days to work but once they start to work they are amazing! Well worth the money and easy to use... top the water up with an empty pop bottle when the water gets low and it lasts ages.

Does not work. Throw away the power included and add your own liquid. Plain water works better than what this includes.

I am amazed how many flies trapped . The traps continue working for long after the 3 or 4 weeks that the instructions promise. Highly recommend.

Excellent at attracting flies, but a bit smelly as it fills up.

I’m still not sure whether this actually catches the flies or if it ends up attracting even more—but it definitely keeps things interesting! It does seem to draw them in, but I couldn’t quite tell how effective it was at reducing the overall number. If you’re curious to try something different for fly control, this might be worth a go, but my results were a bit mixed.
