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.

These apple shaped traps are useless. Sure, the solution attracts the fruit flies, but they won't go in. It seems these nano-sized pests are smarter than your lab and design staff, sheesh...!!

Thank you for sharing your experience with the TERRO® Fruit Fly Trap. We’re sorry to hear the trap didn’t work as expected. These traps are designed so the scent draws fruit flies inside, so a few placement steps can help improve results. Place the trap right where the flies are active, keep the entry holes clear, and remove competing food sources like overripe fruit or spills. Keeping it away from strong airflow can also help the lure stay concentrated.
They work at work :)

Have fruitflys at work that were annoying- Tryed the homemade acv version- not much luck- Bought the zevo plug in thing- it caught 2 in 7 days- so i put 4 of these out 2 on each floor- within few days they caught many- I placed them near trash cans and near sink- They work period! And they don't look out of place- 4 stars is because i think 2 bottles of the acv liquid would be better-

If you’re fighting an infestation and you think you can leave them and be done with it YOURE WRONG. They will breed around and even INSIDE THE TRAPS making all the ones you caught pointless because more are being born. Like, they work, but I haven’t even reached the 45 days it says you can leave them out for and this is happening…

One star for ease of use; though easy to use these are totally ineffective in my home. I have two traps placed in the “fly zones” for more than a week and no bugs have been enticed to take a peek. In my opinion these are a total waste of money!

Bought these and the Raid® Indoor Fruit Fly Trap, with Food-Based Lure. Set up both side by side and after 2 days the Terro one had lots in them and the Raid had none, not 1!!

Got this several day's ago and put one in my kitchen and one in the bathroom. Later in the day while in the kitchen I noticed a clear liquid on my kitchen counter the trap had leaked completely out onto my counter top. I just hope I got it all up not knowing if it is harmful to humans.

They're able to get out of the trap, making it entirely useless. The holes are too large and the inlaid tunnels the flies have to go through are too short. The original design with one, long tunnel they had to get through was more effective.

My soap dish and half empty wine glass caught more fruit flies than these traps, which were right nearby in the kitchen and bathroom.

Best fruit fly control

I bought this product off Amazon. I’ve tried many attractants for fruit flues including apple cider vinegar, and other specialized refill liquids. This product has been the best performing. I would prefer to just buy the formula as a refill rather than having to repurchase the plastic carriers all the time though.

Q&A

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
Just set up the trap and the fruit flies are crawling all over it but don't seem to be going in. Does it take a while for them to go into the trap? By the way I use your liquid ant bait. Works every time!!! Thanks.
Question by: Steven on Jul 30, 2025, 3:07 PM
Thank you very much for contacting us.

Yes, it may take a little time for the fruit flies to enter the trap. Once they do, they will be unable to escape or continue breeding. In a matter of days, you should begin to notice a significant decrease in the fruit fly population.

It would be our pleasure to assist you with any further questions. We're glad to hear the liquid ant bait is working well for you!

What is the chemical make-up of the liquid . As a person highly allergic to many things that touch my skin, it would be beneficial to know what that liquid is. Plus anyone having small children would need to know if a child accidentally obtained access to it.
Question by: mike durnack on Aug 29, 2025, 9:54 AM
Hi, thank you for reaching us. The lure is a proprietary food-based product. We are unable to provide the ingredients.
Answer by: Guillermo (Admin) on Aug 29, 2025, 4:10 PM
The packager covered the directions with tape. I cannot read directions. Can you please post directions on how much liquid to put in each apple
Question by: Elberta on May 26, 2025, 7:09 PM
Thank you very much for contacting us.

We’re sorry to hear the directions were covered by packaging tape. Here are the full instructions for using the fruit fly traps:

Place the traps upright on a solid surface and remove the cap from the lure bottle.

Insert the tip of the lure bottle into the center hole of the trap. Pour half (15 mL) of the bottle into each trap.

Position the traps in areas where fruit flies are commonly seen. Be sure to place them where they will not be disturbed or tipped over.

Discard the traps after 45 days of use.

If you’d like to see a digital version of the instructions, please visit www.terro.com, search for model T2502, and click on “Instructions” under the product page.

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.
