We are sorry to hear about your experience and appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback with us. Often a gnat, drain fly or other type of nuisance fly invasion is mistaken for a fruit fly invasion. As their name suggest, fruit flies are attracted to fruit - they're small, winged insects typically found around ripe produce in your kitchen, near garbage cans and open bottles of wine. If the flies aren’t attracted to the lure, you’re most likely not dealing with a fruit fly invasion.
Do not waste your money!

I purchased 2 double packs of the fruit fly traps. Per packing, the traps should work for 90 days. Two weeks into their use they’ve nearly evaporated. Waste of money! False advertisement!

We are sorry to hear about that! The lure is designed to last up to 45 days per trap in ideal conditions. Please keep in mind that it may evaporate more quickly in drier environments.

Package says each trap supposed to last 45 days each. I bought 2 packs so 4 apples. All 4 traps lasted 5 days. Waste of money

It doesn’t work at all. I have 2 traps near the fruit bowl. They are all over the walls nearby and the bowl.

Thank you for sharing this feedback. We're sorry to hear that the desired results were not seen with this trap. It is designed to attract fruit flies. Other similar-looking flies, such as fungus gnats or drain flies would not be attracted. It has a 30 day return period. We recommend reaching out to the retailer for assistance regarding returns.

Apples worked great, but need a refill. Took a few days for the flies to actually go in the apples. They all gathered on top and flew off when someone approached. After 4-5 days, the apples were full of bugs. But, as mentioned by several other reviewers, a refill option would be so much better. I have 4 of these in my kitchen as we had quite a fruit fly problem. Now throwing 4 plastic balls away. Please make a refill option.

I think these work really well, however I have a couple issues. It would be a lot more convenient if there were refills sold instead of having to buy another pack with 2 new traps. The original traps are plastic and can and should be reused rather than thrown away, in my opinion. I also think that the ingredients should be on the packaging or at the very least, listed on your website or safety data sheet. It's important information that should at least be able to be accessed by the consumer. I do recommend this product. It does exactly what's it's made to do.

Works, but I wish there were liquid refills to purchase—instead of buying additional “apples”.

I was skeptical, but the flies really do migrate to this little trap and a majority of them die right away. This trap made a huge difference. I have a few reasons for not giving 5 stars. The trap does not keep flies that get in in. They can and do walk back out again. The thing is, the flies do not want to leave the area of the trap. They all hang around, waiting their turn to take a sip and fall in the liquid I guess? This arrangement means they aren't successfully breeding and will eventually end my problem. The second problem is there doesn't seem to be a refill option, leading to the third problem - the thing is made of plastic. I do not want to throw 2 pieces of plastic out if I can help it. Please, make a refill option or consider making the trap biodegradable.
