TERRO® Fruit Fly Trap

Have you spotted fruit flies swarming around your kitchen or garbage can? With the TERRO® Fruit Fly Trap you can get the best of these annoying household pests in no time! This fast-acting trap uses a non-toxic liquid bait to lure adult fruit flies inside. Once the flies enter the trap, they cannot escape to continue breeding and multiplying. The trap also features an attractive apple-shaped design that will look at home in any kitchen.

Easy to Use

Getting rid of fruit flies in your home has never been easier! Just follow these four simple steps.

  1. Set the traps upright on a solid surface and remove the cap from the lure bottle.
  2. Insert the tip of the lure bottle into the center hole of the trap. Empty half of the bottle into each trap.
  3. Place the traps in areas where you’ve spotted fruit flies in a spot where they will not be disturbed or tipped.
  4. Discard the traps after 45 days of use.
 
How do they work?

How Do They Work?

Fruit flies depend on moist organic debris. The TERRO® Fruit Fly Trap lures adult fruit flies to the trap using a special food-based liquid lure. Flies that enter the trap are unable to escape and continue breeding. In a matter of days, you should begin to notice a dramatic decrease in the number of fruit flies around your home.

Attractive Apple Design

Gone are the days of unsightly traps taking up space inside your home! This trap features an attractive apple-shaped design that will look at home in any kitchen. It also blends in with the fruit these pests love! For your convenience, the trap also has a built-in window, allowing you to keep an eye on catches and lure levels.

Locating breeding areas

Locating Breeding Areas

When trying to eliminate fruit flies, the key to success is locating their breeding areas. You’ll typically spot fruit flies swarming around kitchen fruit bowls and near garbage cans. Place traps behind or under kitchen counters, sinks, dishwashers, near unrefrigerated fruits and vegetables, and any other location where fruit is stored.

Thank you for this feedback. We're sorry to hear that the desired results were not seen with this trap. Fruit flies cannot resist our liquid lure and will eventually find their way into the TERRO® Fruit Fly Trap. However, fungus gnats and drain flies are often mistaken for fruit flies, and these pesky little insects are not attracted to this trap. It has a 30 day return period at the retailer.

Have used these traps successfully for many years. They never fail to reduce the fruitfly population to near zero. Will continue to use these.

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

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.

Q&A

What is the longest distance these traps can attract fruit flies from? I am trying to cover a large trailer shared space work area and need to know how far apart or how close to space multiple traps for full coverage.
Question by: Ellen Murphy on Oct 31, 2024, 2:16 PM
We recommend spacing them about 25 feet apart.
Answer by: Kristen on Oct 31, 2024, 2:56 PM
Several people asked (in their reviews) if refills of lure liquid might be available. No one has answered that question. What can you tell us?
Question by: Tom Groot on Oct 14, 2024, 11:24 PM
Refills are not available for these traps. Currently, for hygienic reasons, the traps are designed to be disposable and should be thrown away after 45 days of use.
Answer by: Rachel Williams (Admin) on Oct 15, 2024, 8:35 AM
This product labels the liquid bait as “non-toxic” but this claim is indeterminate without an ingredient list, subjective to the species being exposed as well as the quantity of exposure to species in question. What specific chemicals/fluids is the liquid bait comprised of? Are they “non-toxic” to dogs? Cats? Infants? Please provide an ingredient list.
Question by: Kathryn Hinkle on Nov 7, 2024, 9:36 PM
The lure is a proprietary food-based lure. We are unable to provide the ingredients
Answer by: Victor (Admin) on Nov 8, 2024, 4:08 PM
I have the traps. Can I purchase addition liquid
Question by: Dave Dirks on Oct 17, 2024, 12:49 PM
The bait is not available for sale individually.
