TERRO T2502 Ready-to-Use Indoor Fruit Fly Trap with Built in Window - 2 Traps 90 day Lure Supply

Most important info in front: From what I am reading and what I’ve seen, this trap might not “prevent escape” as it claims. It looks to really rely on drowning the flies in the liquid, so if you are looking for a way to move the bugs to the outdoors, this isn’t the way to go. However if this is what you want like I did, make sure to keep using a liquid bait that will drown the flies and, if you are looking to DIY the liquid, look at an apple cider vinegar/dish soap mixture (haven’t tried it but looks to be a good mixture based on other reviews).I have used Terro in the past for ants, so even though this product has lower ratings than some other products, I was more willing to spend a couple less dollars with a brand I use already. There is also quite a bit of reviews saying this doesn’t work (or at least not well), and I can’t work out why it works sometimes but doesn’t for others. I have a feeling based on results that did work for one star reviewers that it may be down to the liquid. Maybe something about the strength compared to other things the flies can get to, maybe its quality varies a bit between batches. If it doesn’t work for you, I might suggest making a DIY liquid recipe for the bait and just reusing the container and see if that works.The bait does seem to be vinegar-based from the smell, so if you don’t like that smell, this may not be for you. I only found the smell being strong through when ours got accidentally knocked over and I was near the spill site. While Terro doesn’t seem to sell the liquid bait on its own, you probably can get away with reusing these with a DIY liquid mixture or even another brand. I really like the look of these traps especially compared to DIY setups, and they hide away the death that will be coming without making it impossible to check without opening.We had the problem with the fruit flies for at least a week before we ordered these after some peaches started to rot. They had moved to the sink after the peaches were thrown, and a puff of flies would appear when we used the sink. We purchased this and within 72 hours of placing it, it had gotten most of the flies. After that, it was tipped, so I threw the first one cause I just didn’t want to deal with cleaning the now clogged holes of flies. I placed the second one and used painter’s tape to secure it and it has been there since.
