Target area is smaller, plus you have to keep your hands in like you’re trying to hit an inside carpenter bee.

We have a big fly problem in our backyard over the summer, I put this thing up not even 24 hours ago and there’s got to be 50 or more dead flies in it already! I’m about to buy these things in bulk, it was only like $6 on Amazon and it solved a huge problem immediately, all I had to do is fill it with water and hang it, and it lasts for 30 days.


Those things are great. A few years ago, something died somewhere under or in the house I was living in and I couldn't find it. There was a lot of flies from it, and that thing got them pretty quickly.

Only time I really get flies is when I'm on the smoker on the back patio.

How close should I put it to the door, or will they work pretty much anywhere in the area?

They definitely have a strong smell so I wouldn’t put it too close to a door. I’ve got mine hanging by my trash can because, well, my trash stinks anyway!

I was going to order a single, but it looks like they won’t be back in stock until the middle of July. I’ll find one locally to try.

Vinegar and ammonia (not together tho) are both amazing.

All of them are made the same, but I think the difference is the weight of the plastic bag and the bait. I tried another brand and it didn't work nearly as well or as long as the Red Top.

A couple years ago I bought a Melnor Bucket Fill/Hand Wash hose connector. It hooks to hose and you can turn the dial to use the hose, turn again to use the hand washer, turn again to turn off.

I don't know how to post a pic. Here's a link:

Can confirm the fly trap bag is amazing. We were infested when I was in college from a small back yard and the shite of multiple dogs

Here’s my contribution (although they changed their packaging for the 2 and 6 packs and it sucks and I’ll hate them forever).

Maybe so, but I'm a semi-old fricker and less stress on the wrist is a good thing

I buy all the old hose-end sprayers I find. I've sold every one I've ever bought, and certain ones bring good money.
